About the show: As the British Industrial Revolution dawns, young Ada Byron Lovelace (daughter of the flamboyant and notorious Lord Byron) sees the boundless creative potential in the "analytic engines" of her friend and soul mate Charles Babbage, inventor of the first mechanical computer. Ada envisions a whole new world where art and information converge-a world she might not live to see. A music-laced story of love, friendship, and the edgiest dreams of the future. Jane Austen meets Steve Jobs in this poignant pre-tech romance heralding the computer age.

"I'm excited to be directing this fantastic play for Firehouse," Said Director Jay Louden. "It's beautifully written by Lauren Gunderson [the most produced playwright in the US] and is among the plays that she has written that celebrate the achievements of great women throughout history. I'm honored to be chosen to direct this fascinating story of Ada Byron Lovelace which is full of passion, humor, struggle, and reconciliation."

Ada and the Engine features: Amalia Adiv as Byron, Shane Delevan as Charles Babbage, Erin Bell as Annabella Byron and Mary Sommerville and Greg Palmer as Lord Lovelace and Byron.
