Photo Flash: Main Street Theater Showcases Patriotism vs Morality with COPENHAGEN
In a time where our own country is divided, when issues of national identity and security are being questioned almost daily by people on both sides of party lines, COPHENHAGEN is more relevant than ever.
Certainly Michael Frayn's play it is about physics and the mysterious meeting between Werner Heisenberg and Niels Bohr in 1941. But it also explores crucial subjects like patriotism, morality, ethics, friendship, and human nature. And asks us to consider tough questions. What do we owe to our country? What do we owe to humanity? What do we owe to each other?
Main Street Theater presents the play through March 12. And following the matinee on February 26, John Lienhard, originator of The Engines of Our Ingenuity and Prof. Emeritus of Engineering and of History at the University of Houston, will give a post-show talk followed by an open discussion with the artists and audience. Main Street Theater welcomes the public to attend the FREE event, even patrons who did not attend the night's performance.
Until then, take a look at the cast in action below.
