About the Productions
Secret Order by Bob Clyman

- The production runs from Thursday, Feb. 27, to Sunday, March 2, at The Kranzberg
"Secret Order" is about a young, idealistic cellular biologist with a brilliant new idea for curing cancer is recruited from a relative obscurity to a major cancer research institute by its charismatic director with the offer of his own lab and all the resources he will need to pursue that idea. As the pressure to show publishable results begins to build, his research suddenly hits a snag. He is faced with having to choose between full disclosure of the problem, which would jeopardize the funding he needs, and making the more expedient decision to bend the rules just a little, which will buy him enough additional time to solve the problem.
"Secret Order" is produced by special arrangement with Broadway Play Publishing Inc, NYC.
