Copenhagen

Copenhagen

The show "Copenhagen", staged at the Paisiello Theater on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the birth of the National Institute of Nuclear Physics (INFN), among the appointments organized by the Lecce section, is the story of the meeting of the two great physicists, Bohr and Heisenberg. Replicated more than a thousand times between the National Theater and the West End in London, the show is perhaps the archetype of "scientific theater", capable of spreading by involving and thrilling the public. The story on the stage tells of the two scientists, teacher and pupil, who met during the Second World War, even though they belonged to two nations at war with each other, because they were convinced of the danger that apparently only theoretical discoveries could have built decisive weapons. Michael Frayn's play is a Unisalento production with Ura Teatro. At the end of the show, there is space for discussion on the topics covered with the teachers and researchers of UniSalento and INFN.
