Description: Jenny Gordon was born with an exceptionally low IQ, and scientists select her for an experimental brain operation that triples her intelligence level. The same procedure has achieved great success with a white laboratory mouse named Algernon. The effects of the operation appear gradually, and Jenny’s intelligence continues to grow until it surpasses that of the doctors who experimented on her. It seems that a discovery of worldwide significance has been made—until Algernon’s condition begins to deteriorate. Will the same happen to Jenny?

Play: D. Keyes’ science-fiction classic short story “Flowers for Algernon” (1959). The book has won the Hugo Award and the Nebula Award. It was adapted into the Oscar-winning film “Charly”.
