The Robotics of Love and Longing

by Germaine Shames

A digisexual reimaginging of Pygmalion — roll over, George Bernard Shaw

Scripts in Play
Germaine Shames
The Robotics of Love and Longing

In The Robotics of Love and Longing, a lonely, overworked medical resident buys a state-of-the-art female pleasure robot, with which he begins an intimate relationship — until his mother discovers the lifelike gynoid sprawled, half-naked, on his bed.

 

A tender family dramedy about technology, taboos, and the lengths to which the human need for connection may drive us.

 

Roll over, George Bernard Shaw.
