Copenhagen by Michael Frayn

This script-in-hand performance by Walter Criswell, Mark Diers, and Nicole Quam, directed by Andrew Huovinen, attempts to fill in what was said during physicists Bohr and Heisenberg's mysterious meeting in Copenhagen in 1941.
In 1941, German physicist Werner Heisenberg arrives in Copenhagen to see his Danish counterpart, Niels Bohr. Though they revolutionized atomic science in the 1920s, they now find themselves on opposite sides of a world war.
Tony-award winning playwright Michael Frayn presents different takes on the same visit in this heady piece of live theatre.
Cost: $12. $10 for students, seniors, military, and teachers with I.D.
Held in the UND Art Gallery at the Empire Arts Center.
And don't miss the pre-performance Living Room Conversation on Jan. 3 with Dr. Loh from UND Physics and Dr. Brian Urlacher from Political Science. They will share insight on the nuclear proliferation yesterday and today. The Living Room Conversations are free and made possible by the City of Grand Forks - Government Arts Regrant.
