About the show:

The play DNA by Dennis Kelly takes the negativity and nihilism of a group of teenagers to a completely different level than has been ever seen before in literature.

At first glance, DNA seems to be aimed at young people, because they identify with the characters on stage. But this work also contains universal messages about the constant danger in societies surrounded by existential threats. DNA questions society’s response to cruelty, bullying, peer pressure and herd mentality. Are these behaviors social and learned, or are they part of our nature?
