"We're children of God, sister. No hunk of metal could replace any one of us"

Behind the crumbling walls of St Grace's Convent, an exhausted order of nuns needs resurrecting

Mother Elizabeth has just the thing

Behold 'Mary', a council-funded robot

For some a blessing, for others a curse – could she be the revelation they have all been praying for?

Electric Rosary is a gloriously funny play asking what faith really means in the age of artificial intelligence and what it is to be human in tomorrow's world

'A play of bravura, originality and ambition... full of awe and surprises... adventurous, bold storytelling' ~ WhatsOnStage

'Timely and whip-smart' ~ Manchester Evening News
