Copenhagen is set during World War II when the friendship of two Nobel Prize-winning physicists is tested by the prospect of providing Nazi Germany with the atomic bomb. A mysterious visit by Werner Heisenberg to Niels Bohr's home in Copenhagen in 1941 brings these renowned physicists and dear friends together under trying circumstances and leads to an argument whose consequences may determine the fate of nations. Uncertainty, the quantum mechanical principle discovered by Heisenberg, lies at every turn as he and Bohr attempt to reconstruct this fateful conversation and unravel their misunderstanding once and for all. This Tony Award winning play (2000, Best Foreign Play) is based on historical characters and events.
