À propos de cet audio

In 1912, scientist Marie Curie spent two months on the British seaside at the home of Hertha Ayrton, an accomplished mathematician, inventor, and suffragette. At the time, Curie was in the throes of a scandal in France over her affair with Paul Langevin, which threatened to overshadow the accomplishment of her second Nobel Prize.

Performed by Kate Mulgrew and Francesca Faridany at the Minetta Lane Theatre, this play by Lauren Gunderson is an ode to two remarkable women who, despite tremendous personal and professional obstacles, continued to devote their lives to scientific innovation and social change.

Playwright Lauren Gunderson was awarded a commission through the Audible Emerging Playwrights Fund, an initiative dedicated to developing innovative original plays driven by language and voice. As an Audible commissioned playwright, she received funding and creative support to develop The Half Life of Marie Curie.

Recommended, even if you're not a science nerd. Great story about two brilliant & strong women, back when being so was incredibly difficult.

Very well done

A great production celebrating the scientific achievements of two great women against a backdrop of social revolution against misogynistic society.

Their world was (is still) so unfair yet their scientific curiosity propelled them to a greater understanding of nature itself.

A gem of science history
