It's all in our genes

Teenagers may not realise that two generations ago DNA information was not available. In the past, people rarely knew with absolute certainty who their biological parents were or where their ancestors came from.
In the digital age, DNA testing, gene therapy and manipulation, paternal/maternal confirmations are taken for granted. They tell us so much about our lives now including physical, medical, psychological, emotional and geographical structures that make us individuals, determine who we are.
From genesis (beginning), genes tap into that massive stream of dramatic ideas in and around hereditary issues. Traits are passed on across generations and we may be unable to escape what predetermines us.
Free-standing ideas are suggested for each session, or a single theme could be worked on, perhaps leading to a performance by the end.
