In the 1950s, neurophysiologist John C. Lilly was convinced that dolphins had giant brains and could do more than just play ball. His assistant Margaret Howe is tasked with making the animals talk \u2013 and even the secret services are interested in their research.
The story of Margaret Howe, John C. Lilly and Peter the dolphin is the story of a real experiment funded by NASA in the wild 1960s. It’s a story about scientific passion and the ignorance and neglect with which other living beings are manipulated and mistreated by humans in the name of progress. Once again, Diani\u0161ka proves to be a master of combining serious issues with comedy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reading directed by: Daniel Brunet<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Performers: TBA<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reading will be followed by a talk with Tom\u00e1\u0161 Diani\u0161ka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
