About this listen

The initials stand for Rossum's Universal Robots. This Czech play, first produced in 1921, introduced the word "robot" into the world lexicon. The Rossum factory robots are so human that a well-meaning beauty travels to R.U.R.'s island headquarters to liberate them. She ends up fomenting more revolution than the human race can handle. With a cast featuring Alan Bergmann, John Birney, Brian Finney, Milton James, Laua Kellogg, Ann Marie Lee, Lorna Raver, Stefan Rudnicki, John Schuck, and Kristoffer Tabori.

Hosted by award-winning writer and broadcast personality Harlan Ellison.
