Frankenstein - A Robot Musical
In a world without people robots will remain on earth. They will have operated, analysed and taken temperature and now wheel through empty hospital corridors. It was a beautiful connection: humans break, robots sew them back together. But what, if now people are left for being repaired, perhaps robots should build some themselves? Gold extra will analyze this question with the robotic theatre play "Frankenstein.

Frankenstein had a showcase in December 2013 at Künstlerhaus and in in March 2014 at Basics Festival, ARGEkultur.
