Summary:
In 1912, Marie Curie spent two months at the home of Hertha Ayrton, a mathematician, inventor, and suffragette. At the time, Curie's affair with Paul Langevin threatened to overshadow her second Nobel Prize. Performed by Kate Mulgrew and Francesca Faridany at the Minetta Lane Theatre, this play by Lauren Gunderson is an ode to two remarkable women who, despite tremendous personal and professional obstacles, continued to devote their lives to scientific innovation and social change.
