What would we remember, and what would we forget, if given the chance? It’s the age of artificial intelligence, and 85-year-old Marjorie has a handsome new companion who is programmed to feed the story of her life back to her. In this richly spare, wondrous new play, Jordan Harrison explores the mysteries of human identity and the limits of what technology can replace.
This play contains mature content.
