The Cure for Cancer
Wednesday, 28 October 2026 - Saturday, 31 October 2026
About this event
A scientist lives guided by algorithms. Like every one of us. Until the algorithm sends her in search of love. And the cure for cancer. What begins as a scientific investigation takes her through desire, ambition, and strange encounters, as the line between coincidence and meaning becomes increasingly difficult to draw.
Starring Kate Finegan, James Ireland, Fiona McGeown, and Ankur Vikal, The Cure for Cancer is the new darkly comic play by award-winning Argentine playwright and director Gabriel Graves, whose work has been presented in Argentina, Ireland, Italy, Ecuador and Mexico.
Winner of the Argentores National From Text to Stage Award for best play, The Cure for Cancer has its world premiere at Project Arts Centre.
