INTUITION

The small Mendelssohn-Glass Research Lab is dedicated to cancer research. When Cliff Bannaker's experiment begins to look promising, Sandy Glass rushes publication and a grant proposal. The other post-docs are expected to put their own work aside to support the new project, a situation that engenders resentment. But Robin Decker has suspicions about the merit of Cliff's methodology and results, and opens the lab to public scrutiny. Kathe Mazur's narration is interesting. Her unemotional performance befits the objectivity one expects the scientific process to embody. The unique voices she creates communicate each character's humanity as human foibles and emotions invade the sterile lab. N.E.M. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine [Published: OCT/ NOV 06]
