1980s Expandable Casting Bare Stage/Simple Set Comedy

Synopsis

Moving Bodies follows Nobel Prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman as he explores nature, science, sex, anti-Semitism, and the world around him.

This epic, comic journey portrays Feynman as an iconoclastic young man, a physicist with the Manhattan Project, and confronting the mystery of the Challenger disaster.

Press Reviews

"Physics of the heart [...] We learn about his (Feynman's) eccentricities: his bongo playing, his penchant for picking locks, and most notably his appreciation for women."

— The New York Times

"The Atomic Bomb is central to Giron's play, but it is also very much about human loves and losses. Giron is a wise, compassionate, and skilled playwright."

— New York Theatre Wire

"The themes in Moving Bodies are sex and science, atoms and anti-Semitism, consumerism and truth, and dysfunctional families and romantic love. It is a fascinating and engrossing drama."

— Backstage

"A comic fantasy about Nobel Prize-winning scientist Richard Feynman's exploration of science, sex and the mysteries of existence, Moving Bodies is really good. Don't miss it!"

— Feynman Website
