“Copenhagen,” which imagines the conversation between two leading physicists at the height of World War II, will be performed at Yale on May 29 — and its producers hope it will inspire interest in the mysteries of quantum science.

Before becoming a scientist, Florian Carle worked in the arts. For 12 years he was a theater actor in France before shifting to quantum science; he is now managing director at the Yale Quantum Institute.

Conversely, Vince Tycer worked in the sciences before switching to the arts. He was a computer programmer, and dabbled in physics, but then decided to pursue acting, directing and writing; he is currently an assistant professor in residence in the University of Connecticut’s Drama Department for the Performance/Acting Area.

About a year ago, the two men met and discovered their similar, if flipped, journeys. That commonality led to them to pursue a project that explores quantum theory through art — a production of the play “Copenhagen.”
