a lecture-performance by Swiss researchers Thomas Grunwald, a neurologist from the Swiss Epilepsy Centre in Zurich and Anton Rey, a dramaturg from the Zurich University of the Arts.

On Friday 12 October 2012 from 18:00 hrs – 19:00 hrs

In Bangalore, the duo present the balcony scene of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, with the help of Bangalore-based professional actors Parvathi Om as Juliet and Shrunga B V as Romeo.

In a five-act ‘lecture-performance’, the two researchers explore whether, according to the brain, actors in a play express genuine emotion or just fake it.
