The play is taken by a robot zoo with a four-legged SPOT, a small mobile KUKA, Dorna arms and drones. This motley crew of centaurs and hybrid creatures forms the main narrative to retell the ancient story of man and technology. Combining puppetry, myth, human physicality and robotics, Roboverse is a choreography of mutating forms that balances the familiar and the alienating, the intimate and the spectacular.
Roboverse places humans and robots at the center. Director Ulrike Quade and dramaturg Maaike Bleeker combine artistic and technological research to enrich this magical world with the questions posed. Composer Farzaneh Nouri designs a layered electro-acoustic soundscape that draws the audience into this strange space.
