Malvaldi, who is a novelist and author of thrillers as well as a chemist, combines his knowledge of the humanities and of science to take a journey from Oppenheimer to poetry, from Star Trek to teleportation, to Donald Duck’s creator Carl Barks, Lucretius and the kinetic theory of fluids. His words come to life with great irony thanks the play’s two actors who are also siblings, Maddalena and Giovanni Crippa.
