Romance meets the physics of time in this witty two-person dramedy by Nick Payne. It might remind veteran theatergoers of David Ives' Sure Thing, or anyone alive of the movie Groundhog Day. What if there were parallel universes with varying outcomes? Phoebe González and Casey Hoekstra play the couple in love facing different possibilities in Constellations, in repertory through Sept. 28.
media release: An instant of connection unfurls infinite possibilities – a single moment that explodes into shards, each projecting its own unique outcome. Every new relationship is exquisite in its promise. Whether it blazes on or burns out, it is unique to the people who share it. Love, after all, is the ultimate mind-bender, flowing through countless embodiments from beginning to end. Or to infinity. Or to any of the endless in-betweens – romantic, infuriating, dangerous, funny and ultimately, utterly human. A kaleidoscopic look at love, and the everyday decisions that echo endlessly through time. Running August 10 - September 28.
