Green Mountain Academy for Lifelong Learning is excited to screen the National Theatre’s highly-anticipated stage production of Tom Stoppard’s new play, The Hard Problem at Burr and Burton Academy, Riley Center for the Arts.
Hilary, a young psychology researcher at a brain science institute, is nursing a private sorrow and a troubling question at work, where psychology and biology meet. If there is nothing but matter, what is consciousness? This is ‘the hard problem’ which puts Hilary at odds with her colleagues who include her first mentor Spike, her boss Leo and the billionaire founder of the institute, Jerry. Is the day coming when the computer and the MRI scanner will answer all the questions psychology can ask? Meanwhile Hilary needs a miracle, and she is prepared to pray for one.
