In 1941 German physicist Werner Heisenberg made a secret trip to Copenhagen for a clandestine meeting with his old friend and mentor, Niels Bohr along with Bohr’s wife, Margrethe. Bohr and Heisenberg were the world’s leading experts on the theory that the atom could be split, thus creating an atomic bomb. They were also on opposite sides of the war. The meeting was a disaster.
Now, on a plain of existence which does not recognize the laws of physics, the three are brought together again in search of the answers which eluded them in life. The stage glows. The three figures circle each other like a proton, a neutron, and an electron. And when their ideas collide – BOOM!
Phylloxera Productions presents one of the great works of the modern stage, and the winner of the Tony Award, Drama Desk Award, and Drama Critics Circle Award for Best Play. Directed by Gary Locke.
