Summary note

Behind the crumbling walls of St Grace's Convent, an exhausted order of nuns needs resurrecting. As Easter approaches, Mother Elizabeth has just the thing. Behold 'Mary', a council-funded robot. Practical and surprisingly funny, for some a blessing, for others a curse -- could she be the revelation they have all been praying for? Electric Rosary is a sharp, timely and gloriously funny play by Tim Foley, asking what faith really means in the age of artificial intelligence and what it is to be human in tomorrow's world.
