About the Show:
The Effect unfolds inside a clinical trial where hearts and minds are placed under observation. As two strangers connect in unexpected ways, science begins to blur with emotion, and certainty gives way to longing. With humor, tenderness, and urgency, the play asks whether love is something we choose—or something that happens to us.
