RIVER OF NIGHT
A SCIENCE-DRIVEN HISTORICAL DRAMA
River of Night is a dramatic exploration of ambition, friendship, and the human cost of scientific discovery. The play follows Edwin Hubble and Albert Einstein during the period when new discoveries transformed our understanding of the universe, while exploring the intersection of cosmic wonder with the rise of fascism in Europe.
Excerpts from this play were presented in a public reading as part of Caltech’s MACH 33 festival of science-driven plays.
