DSP brings James Rushbrooke’s first play of the ‘not too distant future’ of genetic screening, along with its moral and ethical implications, to the intimate stage of Oshawa’s Arts Resource Centre to close out the 45th season. ‘Tomcat’ is a science fiction drama set in the not too distant future where the world believes it is perfect and has mostly succeeded in wiping out all genetic diseases through mandatory screening to detect genetic abnormalities of any kind, and then terminate them.
