Description
The Oppenheimer play takes us into the heart of the Manhattan Project, revealing the personal cost of making history. In 1939, fascist regimes spread across Europe and two German chemists discovered atomic fission, setting in motion a chain of events that would change the world forever. As theoretical physicists struggled to comprehend the enormity of their discovery, one man stood at the forefront: J Robert Oppenheimer. With charisma and authority, he navigated the treacherous landscape of the 'battle of the laboratories', racing against time to create a weapon so devastating it would bring about an end to all war. Tom Morton-Smith's new play is a gripping portrayal of this pivotal moment in history, where personal ambition and scientific discovery collided with catastrophic consequences.
