Gifts to Arts Alliance presents: The Effect by Lucy Prebble contribute to...
The Effect by Lucy Prebble follows Tristan and Connie, who fall madly in love with each other from the moment they first meet. Unfortunately, their relationship throws the antidepressant clinical trial they are both participants in into complete chaos, leaving Tristan, Connie, and the two doctors to figure out whether their love is real, if it’s caused by the drug, or if it even matters what caused them to fall for each other. It explores many themes that are crucial to the world we live in, including mental health, love, and what parts of us can be changed with technology and medicine, and what we are stuck with, whether we like it or not.
This show is in Arts Alliance's brand new winter site-specific slot, performed off-campus at Piven Theatre Workshop. This is a huge step for both Arts Alliance and Northwestern student theater. This is both an exciting opportunity and a huge undertaking for a group of students to take on, so any gift you are able to make will be even more appreciated and crucial than a normal student production.
