5 things a robot taught me about acting


CNN.com Blogs: I’ve long aspired to put robots on stage, which is strange to say since the first appearance of a "robot" was on a stage. The play, which was called "Rossum’s Universal Robots," by the Capek Brothers, introduced the word ‘robot’ into the lexicon in 1920. Ever since, that word - and the themes of the play - have been embraced by science.
But not by art. At least until recently.
