Pulse Theatre presents Strings Attached, a new play by multi-award winning poet and playwright Carole Buggé, which merges the world of physics into a love triangle, from Monday, August 29 through Saturday, October 1 at Theatre Row. Directed by Alexa Kelly, the play asks, are there alternate realities; are there parallel universes? The company of Strings Attached features Robyne Parrish, Brian Richardson, Paul Schoeffler, Bonnie Black, Jonathan Hadley and Russell Saylor.
Loosely based on real events, Strings Attached features three contemporary scientists—two cosmologists and a particle physicist—on a train ride from Cambridge to London to see the play, Copenhagen, by Michael Frayn. Enroute, they discovered a theory of the Big Bang. The appearances of Isaac Newton, Marie Curie and Max Planck bring in another realm of reality, add insight into their contributions, and earthy humor. We are left with the message that life with all its strife, is still a thing of ultimate beauty.
Strings Attached will play a five-week limited engagement, from Monday, August 29 through Saturday, October 1. Tickets are $55. For more information and to purchase, visit TheatreRow.org or call the box office at 212-714-2442 ext. 45.
Theatre Row is located at 410 West 42nd Street, NYC
