Synopsis
When esteemed biologist Rosalind Franklin took Photograph 51 in 1951, it changed the course of the discovery of DNA forever. Statistics shows the side-by-side stories of two female scientists, separated by half a century, embroiled in their own races against the clock. Rosalind Franklin struggles against misogyny while current-day premedical student Rose Andersson fights cutthroat competition for medical school admission. In their darkest moments, they form a connection of grit, perseverance, and love for their field. Winner of the 2020 Adams Prize for Musical Theatre, Statistics highlights an underrepresented historical figure and the beauty in scientific discovery. (fringetoronto.com)
