Constellations

In Nick Payne’s Constellations, beekeeper meets quantum physicist. From there, Roland & Marianne’s love story unfolds across multiple universes, revealing infinite possibilities (and endings) between them as they grapple with The Big Questions (Do we have free will? When is love worth fighting for? How can I get through to you, in this universe and all others?). In this dance theater interpretation, each character is played by a pair of actor-dancers, exploring how emotion and communication lives beyond language.
