Davison, Groener, Itzin & More Set For Cast Of THE PHYSICISTS Recorded For Radio 7/8-12

L.A Theatre Works records Friedrich Durrenmatt's classic satire "THE PHYSICISTS" for radio July 8-12.

The Physicists weaves a murder mystery with bizarre humor and wacky situations to question whether man can be trusted with destructive knowledge. The world's greatest physicist, Johann Wilhelm Mobius, is in a madhouse, haunted by recurring visions of King Solomon. He is kept company by two other equally deluded scientists: one who thinks he is Einstein, another who believes he is Newton. It soon becomes evident, however, that these three are not as harmlessly lunatic as they appear. Are they, in fact, really mad? Or are they playing some murderous game, with the world as the stake? All performances are recorded to air on LATW's nationally-syndicated, weekly radio theater series, which broadcasts locally in Southern California on 89.3 KPCC and can be streamed on demand at www.latw.org.
