One key factor is the pressure from the competition to be the first to discover something new. The moral consequences of this are the subject of the play "Oxygen," dealing with the discovery of this all-important element. The focus of the play is on chemical and political revolutions, as well as the Nobel Prize, which will be awarded for the 100th time in 2001. The action takes place in 1777 and 2001; and the play is written for 3 actors and 3 actresses who play a total of 11 characters.
