Location: Mainstage Theatre, University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee Peck School of the Arts, 2400 E. Kenwood Boulevard Region: Downtown arts.uwm.edu/theatre By John Walch. Directed by Bill Watson. When a private foundation offers a large grant to a financially troubled prep school, it gives the ailing school a chance at survival. The catch is that the school must alter its science curriculum to teach Intelligent Design along side evolution. The offer ignites Henry Huxley - the Victorian scientist known as "Darwin's Bulldog" and polarizes the community as it forces individuals to take sides. "Nature of Mutation" whimsically explores what happens when opposing viewpoints collide, and traces the inner leaps of trust and faith one needs to make to find common ground.
