In The Uncanny Valley, young Edwin agrees to participate in a study run by the mysterious Professor Southcott in order to escape a destructive digital doppelganger. The contract Edwin signs promises him wealth and a clean slate; in exchange, he must upload his mind into Dummy, a robot capable of mirroring Edwin's being. This new multimedia play is a horrifying yet humorous exploration of the fragility of the human soul.

Dummy the robot is a full-sized, fully programmed humanoid RoboThespian™. Created and produced by Engineered Arts in England, RobotThespians™ are becoming increasingly common as interactive tools and companions. The Uncanny Valley is one of the first instances of this cutting-edge technology being used in a theater production. 

We look forward to seeing you at the show!

Best regards,

Emily Owens
