Inside a one-room apartment in the heart of Seoul, Oliver lives a happily quiet life listening to jazz records and caring for his favorite plant. But what else is there to do when you’re a Helper-Bot 3, a robot that has long been retired and considered obsolete? When his fellow Helper-Bot neighbor Claire asks to borrow his charger, what starts as an awkward encounter leads to a unique friendship, a surprising adventure, and maybe even...love?

A wonderful surprise…
"Went to see this play understanding only 2 things: 1. It was about retired robots and 2. It got really good reviews in both WSJ AND the NYT. The play, a metaphor for life, was both funny and sad …and was brilliantly staged. The acting was great (We saw the “ premiere broadway performance” of the young male understudy. He did a great job. ) Worth the trip to NYC. "

"This was mind-flowingly creative! Skeptical at first, I was enthralled from the opening curtain-- the set design, eccentric plot, superb songs. It was one of my favorite musicals ever; a true delight in every way!"

Our new favorite show!
"I surprised my daughter with tickets to this show for her 18th birthday. We had 5th row because we are huge Darren Criss fans, but his talent is so well matched with all three of the other performers. It is incredibly well-written, has the most phenomenal (even cutting edge) moving stage, the costumes, set, everything is Perfection. You literally lose yourself in the plot, are transported to another world, and it is all so unreal yet seems so inexplicably real. I would see it over and over again if I lived here. The singing and acting is beyond Fantastic! I could go on and on... It is as simple as a play with music yet the talent, set, writing and music take it way beyond big ensemble stage productions. There is nothing else like it!"

An absolute treat
"I absolutely loved everything about this show. It was my birthday present to myself and I do not regret choosing this show over the more classical ones at all. It is a refreshingly modern musical about deeply human topics such as loss and love while being centred around two robots. The cast is amazing and really manages to transport you all the way to South Korea in the (not too distant) future.
The stage design was amazing and a characteristic of the show. While there was a little technical issue during this performance, for which it had to be stopped for about 5-10 min, everything was handled with professionalism and thus did not negatively influence my experience.
I hugely recommend this show to everyone who is looking for a heartfelt musical experience! "
