Copenhagen

About

This modern classic receives its first London production since the 1998 National Theatre premiere in a completely new production by Michael Longhurst, who has previously directed Between Riverside and Crazy, Caroline or Change, and Gloria at Hampstead Theatre. The production stars award-winning actors Alex Kingston (ER, Doctor Who) as Margrethe, Damien Molony (Being Human, Brassic) as Heisenberg, and Richard Schiff (The West Wing, The Good Doctor) as Niels Bohr. The play explores the uncertainty at the heart of the atom and the uncertainty of the human mind, humanizing physics in a profound way. Content guidance includes themes of war, antisemitism, and death (including the death of a child). Age guidance 14+.
