Jordan Harrison’s new play THE ANTIQUITIES asks the question, “What does it mean to be human?” It opens with two museum curators inviting the audience to tour a museum displaying relics from the late human era...with the implication that said place exists in a post-human one. This is the first play I’ve seen that specifically tackles A.I. and technology...and the potential ramifications of letting that go unchecked. 

As part of The Today Show's ongoing Broadway showcase, the cast of Dead Outlaw visited the morning show to perform a selection of songs from the musical. Watch them now!
