Einstein Meets Broadway with THE WORLD SCIENCE FESTIVAL, Now thru 6/2

By:

It's hard to conceive of a Broadway review of quantum mechanics, but the World Science Festival has pulled it off with three sold-out shows at The New Victory Theatre. Think of it as theater meets the most thrilling science lecture! Yes, there is such a thing.

The performance, "Spooky Action: The Drama of Quantum Mechanics," is the younger sibling of the critically acclaimed Icarus at the Edge of Time, which was performed around the world after its NYC debut.

This year, Spooky Action kicks off the 6th annual World Science Festival on Wednesday, May 29th.

Performers include:

Brian Greene: head of the World Science Festival, physicist and professor of physics and mathematics at Columbia University; recognized for a number of groundbreaking discoveries in his field of superstring theory.
