Discover humanity's complexities in Akhtar's new play, starring Robert Downey Jr.
Jacob McNeal, portrayed by Robert Downey Jr., stands as a literary giant perennially on the cusp of a Nobel Prize in Literature. However, beneath his acclaim lies familial estrangement, a new novel, unresolved grievances, and an unsettling fascination with Artificial Intelligence. Ayad Akhtar, a Pulitzer Prize laureate, unveils a thought-provoking examination of the intertwining threads of humanity and the burgeoning influence of AI in storytelling, directed by Tony Award winner Bartlett Sher.
