R.U.R. 2.025 (premiere)

Divadlo Za plotem presents the premiere of R.U.R. 2.025 — a contemporary adaptation of Karel Čapek's 1920 play that introduced the word "robot" to the world. The new production transposes the story to the present day: an era when robots are actually manufactured, become everyday helpers, and increasingly take over human tasks.

The production raises questions about humanity's direction: are we creating helpers or successors? And who will decide whether mankind deserves to be saved?
