The seventh best musical robot group in the world is making a new musical, to be performed to all robots everywhere and it’s going to completely explain what humans are – in song. Everything will be fine,
they just need some clear answers. That rhyme. Meanwhile 10-year old Jennifer Dempsey – MASSIVE robot fan – is on a mission of her own, one that might just change the course of robot- human relations forever!

This big-hearted – and funny! –story about loss, friendship and hope features three humanoid robots, one quite robotic human and beautiful original songs throughout.

Humans: A Robot Musical embarked on a national tour in November 2024, visiting Riverbank Arts Centre, Siamsa Tíre, Visual, Mermaid Arts Centre, The Theatre Royal and Áras Éanna. This wonderful documentary captures the last days of the tour.
