After my breakup with the dreaded ex, I'd completely sworn off dating, but then I met George. He must've known that I had a weakness for Oscar Wilde and the theatre. So despite being advised against it, I decided to go on my very first date with a zombie.

In the last two years, Orlando's Mad Cow Theatre has assumed the mantle as one of the Southeast's leaders in producing 'Science Plays.' In addition to their Second Annual Science Play Festival, which begins Friday, February 27th, the Church Street theatre recently premiered Anna Ziegler's affecting play PHOTOGRAPH 51, about the race to discover the structure of DNA. On first blush, such a technical topic doesn't seem like the most obvious choice for a compelling drama, but what Ziegler and director Denise Gillman obviously understand is that a good play, no matter its subject, is best when focused on human relationships and emotions. PHOTOGRAPH 51, which seems as if it was written for Mad Cow's intimate Zehngebot-Stonerock Theatre, provides plenty of science, but truly excels when the actors pull back the layers on their characters' intricacies.
Mad Cow Theatre has announced the cast and creative team for its upcoming run of Photograph 51, by Anna Ziegler, set to open February 20, 2015 in The Zehngebot-Stonerock Theatre as part of Season 18.
