When DNA Testing Becomes a Play – The DNA Trail

Most people think science – particularly DNA testing and art do not really get along as they are belong to two different worlds. Nonetheless, seven playwrights have carried out a DNA test and written a play about their DNA test results. It is an articulate way to bring DNA testing in theatre – known as the The DNA Trail.

Perhaps it’s time for playwrights to get the right science resources for their writing (I would suggest DNAmazing as one of their resources)
