Preview performances begin June 28 for "Heisenberg" at the Mark Taper Forum. Written by Tony Award and two-time Olivier Award winner Simon Stephens, "Heisenberg" opens July 6 and will continue through August 6, 2017.

Directed by Drama Desk Award winner Mark Brokaw and featuring Tony nominee Denis Arndt and Tony, Emmy and Golden Globe winner Mary-Louise Parker, the creative team for "Heisenberg" includes Mark Wendland (scenic design), Michael Krass (costume design), Austin R. Smith (lighting design) and David Van Tieghem (sound design).

Amidst the bustle of a crowded London train station, Georgie (Parker) spots Alex (Arndt), a much older man, and plants a kiss on his neck. This electric encounter thrusts these two strangers into a fascinating and life-changing game as "Heisenberg" brings to blazing, theatrical life the uncertain and often comical sparring match that is human connection.

When "Heisenberg" received its world premiere at Manhattan Theatre Club in 2015, Ben Brantley of The New York Times called the play "a probing work that considers the multiplicity of alternatives that could shape our lives at every moment." On returning to see the Broadway run in 2016, Brantley said "Heisenberg" "seems more shimmeringly and satisfyingly elusive each time I see it." Adding that Parker and Arndt are "the sexiest couple on a New York stage just now."
