In the Black Box Theatre!
UMBC Theatre presents User Agreeement by Ben Holbrook and directed by Sean DiGiorgio ’26.
Set in the near future, Sy and Theo attempt to navigate their bond in a world enhanced by the wonders of artificial intelligence and the occasional talking octopus. Their budding romance is tested by an increasingly complex society driven by technology and capital, asking us to wonder if two simple souls can truly connect.
