A NUMBER

About the show

A man discovers he is one of multiple identical genetic clones created by his father. When the father confronts the results of an unethical genetic experiment, the two must navigate the emotional and ethical implications of this revelation. Caryl Churchill's 2002 Evening Standard Award-winning play explores identity, parenthood, and the boundaries of scientific ambition through an intimate two-character drama. Roger Allam portrayed the father, while Colin Morgan played all the sons in this production directed by Polly Findlay.
