Ever feel like there just aren’t enough plays about meet-cutes involving theoretical physicists? If so, you’re in luck—currently showing at UC Davis is playwright Andrew Nicholl’s {LOVE/logic}, a story about two brilliant scientists who are scheduled to debate theoretical physics at an upcoming conference. When they find themselves struggling to physically move past each other on a train, their impossible situation inevitably leads to romance. Is it an extended metaphor, or are they both just really stuck? Those train hallways can get pretty tight.
