Genus Theatre presents a thrilling plot-twister of a tale featuring everything from murder to betrayal, hidden agendas and Earth-endangering secrets.
It's Friederich Dürrenmatt's The Physicists, and it has a cast that includes Tri-City actors Victoria Lyons and Kathleen Pollard of Coquitlam, as well as 12-year-old Blake Stockford of Port Moody.
The Physicists confronts issues of humanity as it continues to grapple with questions of scientific responsibility and ethics. The 50-year-old script is presented in a classic film noir style, but the questions, conflicts and issues it raises are as relevant as ever.
• The Physicists is on Nov. 13 at the Performing Arts Lodge (PAL) Theatre (#300-581 Cardero St., Vancouver) Nov. 13. Visit www.genustheatre.com for more information.
