Fission
By Jacques and Olivier Treiner Translated
by Ed and Rebecca Schonberg
French father-son
team Jacques and Olivier Treiner premiered a new translation of their prize-winning play Fission at the
Art of Science Reading Series. Staged in an airy hall of the CUNY Graduate Center, the play depicts the race to
create an atomic bomb on both sides of the Atlantic. Fission is as much a celebration of scientific imagination
as it is an examination of the ethical issues of one of the most significant inventions of the twentieth century.
