Stinkpioneer

Stinkpioneer is a thought-provoking drama that delves into the world of chemical warfare during WWI. Based on the true story of James Franck, who worked for Fritz Haber developing chemical weapons, the production explores the consequences of unchecked ego and moral compromise in times of conflict.

Starring and written by James Boyd, Stinkpioneer delivers a powerful and emotional journey through one of the most challenging periods in modern history. The production's score and writing bring the story to life, immersing audiences in the world of Franck and Haber.
