Directed by Debra Kent
Produced by K.L. Storer

Cast: Jim Walker as Albert Einstein, Peggy Allen as Margaret/Lieserl & Rachel Oprea as Miss Dukas

In 1902, Albert and Mileva Einstein had a daughter. After 1904, the child was never seen or spoken of again. It is now 1942, and a reporter has come to interview Einstein about his mysterious family history, only to discover far more secrets under the surface. As the reporter questions Einstein about his theory of relativity and personal past, she develops a new, more pressing query: To be a great man, does one first need to be a good man?

FT_Every Brilliant ThingEVERY BRILLIANT THING
Falcon Theatre
March 17-April 1
[Newport]

Directed by Tracy M. Schoster

Cast: Eileen Earnest

You’re six years old. Mom’s in the hospital. Dad says she’s “done something stupid.” She finds it hard to be happy. So you start to make a list of everything that’s brilliant about the world. Everything that’s worth living for. 1. Ice cream. 2. Kung Fu movies. 3. Burning things. 4. Laughing so hard you shoot milk out your nose. 5. Construction cranes. 6. Me. You leave it on her pillow. You know she’s read it because she’s corrected your spelling. Soon, the list will take on a life of its own. A play about depression and the lengths we will go to for those we love.
