„The Effect“ by Lucy Prebble is a play about love, human relationships, and the search for authenticity in a world marked by division and digitalization. Named Best British Play of 2012 by the Critics' Circle Theatre Awards, „The Effect“ tells the story of two volunteers in a clinical trial of a new antidepressant who fall in love and are left wondering whether this is a genuine feeling or just a chemical reaction. A story that raises questions about the boundaries between science and humanity, about the price of discoveries, and about the eternal mystery of love.
The project is carried out with the support of the National Fund „Culture“ under the program „Creation 2024“.
