DNA by Dennis Kelly is a tense and unsettling story about a group of young people bound together by a terrible secret. When something goes wrong, panic sets in, and what begins as an accident becomes a test of loyalty, guilt and survival. 

Tense, and disturbingly human, DNA explores morality, manipulation, and the cost of complicity.

Dennis Kelly’s razor-sharp writing keeps audiences gripped to the very end, asking one haunting question: how far would you go to keep your place in the group?
