Uncanny Valley at International City Theatre

If recent hits Ex Machina and Morgan are any indication, humans are getting closer than ever to developing lifelike robots with artificial intelligence -- or at least developing full-blown paranoia about its implications. In Uncanny Valley, Thomas Gibbons' thought-provoking new play at International City Theatre, researchers have developed a means of extending the human lifespan through A.I. But as Claire, a neuroscientist, charts her relationship with a non-biological human named Julian, a painful divide is discovered. Ultimately, Claire must come face to face with her creation -- and is shocked to discover just who's staring back at her. No children under age 7. Tickets required of all attendees regardless of age.
