The Physicists keeps its focus on the single drawing room of the villa of Les Cerisiers. The play opens with a second murder at the villa having been already committed in the room. The action revolves around the events taking place in the drawing room. This creates a sense of claustrophobia that ties in neatly with the idea of the sanatorium as a sort of prison.
