There are countless ways that relationships can suddenly change, and Nick Payne’s remarkable drama takes that reality to the nth degree.  Incorporating the mind-bending concept of the “multiverse,” Constellations innovatively illustrates the multiple possibilities of one couple’s romance, with scenes often repeated to present different outcomes.  The arc of their journey brings to mind questions about the roles of choice and fate in our own lives, and demonstrates the infinite power of love.

“Who knew that higher physics could be so sexy, so accessible—and so emotionally devastating?” – The New York Times

“Short and sweet and strangely haunting… With each iteration Roland and Marianne grow closer to one another… And by the end of the play…we’re fully invested in their lives. All of them.” — Variety
