IRT Presents- Sanguine Theatre Company's Jessica by Patrick Vermillion
IN RESIDENCE: July 18, 2017- August 7, 2017
IN RESIDENCE: July 18, 2017- August 7, 2017
In 2013, Jessica vanished. Now, her closest friends are reconstructing her with cutting-edge technology to try and track her down. They prime the android with memories from Jessicas past, but its clear that their stories dont add up. As Jessicas friends fight for ownership over an artificial Jessica, the android listens, learns, and plays along. Suddenly, the line between robot and real life is very, very thin.
Written by a playwright who daylights as a software engineer, Jessica dissolves the metallic glamour of traditional science fiction and delivers a jarring encounter with artificial intelligence.
Jessica is the winner of Sanguine Theatre Companys 2017 Project Playwright Festival. The play was chosen from hundreds of submissions to receive its world premiere as part of Sanguines 2017 season. Directed by Emily Jackson.
