Two for one tickets for Carl Djerassi's INSUFFICIENCY at the Riverside Studios

ABOUT THIS OFFER:

ABOUT THE SHOW:
Insuficency by Carl Djerassi. Envry, rivalry, back-stabbing... and bubbles! A chemical whodunnit.

In this delightful new play, a comedy of scientific manners, mystery and suspense, Jerzy Krzyz is a Polish chemist with an unusual specialism. Bubbleology. (Yes, it's a serious scientific subject!). Newly arrived at an American university he is determined to secure a permanent post. But the other academics dismiss him and his subject. Their rivalry gets out of hand when he gives two colleagues who are blocking his appointment some experimental champagne - with deadly consequences. Was it an accident... or revenge?

Carl Djerassi is best known as 'The Father' of the contraceptive pill, and is the only living person to be included in The Sunday Times list of the Top Thirty Men of the Millennium (1999). His many compelling science-in-theatre plays have been translated into 20 languages and given over 100 productions around the world. Further information at www.djerassi.com

Press on Carl Djerassi plays: “...the play is humorous, fast-paced and wholly unexpected.” Chemistry World on Insufficiency “...a lively, flirtatious presentation of science...a satisfyingly spicy scientific number.” Evening Standard on Oxygen “...Djerassi's screwball comedy...funny lines and gags...director Andy Jordan plays the action on and off the couch to great effect.” Hollywood Reporter on Three on a Couch.

Cast includes: Karen Archer, Tim Dutton, Sara Griffiths, Walter Van Dyk. Director / Producer Andy Jordan Designer Signe Beckmann
