THE EFFECT by Lucy Prebble opens April 4th!

“The Effect is a clinical romance. Two young volunteers, Tristan and Connie, agree to take part in a clinical drug trial. Succumbing to the gravitational pull of attraction and love, however, Tristan and Connie manage to throw the trial off-course, much to the frustration of the clinicians involved.”
Concord Theatricals

The Atlanta Premier of THE EFFECT by Lucy Prebble is a cathartic intimate look at love and the minds behind it.

Directed by Robert Mello and Donald Johnston

Featuring
Nhadyne Banton-Brown
