Heisenberg

Sep 18 - Nov 11, 2018

A chance encounter at a London train stop changes the course of life for two people in this hit Broadway play by Tony Award®-winning playwright Simon Stephens (The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time).

After mistaking him for someone else, Georgie finds herself improbably drawn to the much older Alex. Their instant connection ignites a tender, funny and intimate journey in an electric new play directed by Joe Calarco.

“Vibrant and emotionally charged.” – The New York Times

“Quirky, lovely, funny and powerful.” – The Associated Press

Written by Simon Stephens
Directed by Joe Calarco
