Mid-April Performance: It´s electrifying!

Why Not Theatre Company presents a Why Not Pop Up production of Mr Tesla Played, the story of Nikola Tesla, an unrecognised hero who many regard as the true father of the electric age.

His drive, inventiveness and need to create are shown through a monologue in a very intimate setting, creating a close relationship between the audience and performer.

It also shows what happens when an ambitious person is way ahead of his time.

As Why Not Theatre points out, Mr Tesla Played … and electrified the world.
