Synopsis

Philosopher, David Hume and father of modern economics, Adam Smith awake in Edinburgh in the early 21st Century. To their bewilderment, joy and horror, it is a prerevolutionary world where all the knowledge they ever dreamt of is at everyone's fingertips and the utopia of a free market economy is a reality. But at what cost to the planet and to humanity? The Tree of Knowledge is a wildly imaginative, hilariously funny and deeply moving new play from one of Scotland's most important playwrights. World premiere at Edinburgh's Traverse Theatre in 2011.
