“Constellations” is a moving play by British playwright Nick Payne. This conceptual, artistic piece explores how our choices define us by highlighting how the two characters - Marianne and Roland - are pulled together and apart throughout different universes. The characters experience the joy, grief, and heartache that comes with fighting for control of our destiny. “Constellations” is a truly unique show that was recognized by the Drama League Awards as a nominee for Best Play in 2015. This isn’t your average night at the theater!

“Who knew that higher physics could be so sexy, so accessible—and so emotionally devastating? CONSTELLATIONS, Nick Payne’s gorgeous two-character drama…may be the most sophisticated date play Broadway has seen. [Payne is] a wise and compassionate young playwright…And though CONSTELLATIONS is a supremely articulate play, it knows that words inevitably fail, that they are never enough to bind two people together forever. Time, it turns out, is a more effective breaker of hearts than human beings, with all their conflicted intentions, can ever be. This story of parallel universes is universal in every sense of the word.” —The New York Times.
