Penned by Lucy Prebble, the drama focuses on two strangers participating in a pharmaceutical drug trial. As the dosage increases, so does their mutual attraction. Very soon they are breaking all the rules.

The play explores the psychology of love and the mysteries of the brain and what really makes us who we are.

The Effect is running in Sheffield until July 18.
