Sanguine Theatre Company presents a new sci-fi drama about a missing woman and the android built in her image that's supposed to find her. More…
In 2013 Jessica vanished. Now her closest friends are reconstructing her with cutting-edge technology to try and track her down. They prime the android with memories from Jessica's past, but it's clear that their stories don't add up. As her friends fight for ownership over an artificial Jessica, the android listens, learns, and plays along. Suddenly the line between robot and real life is very, very thin.
