"Emilie: La Marquise Du Châtelet Defends Her Life Tonight"
By Lauren Gunderson
Directed by Jessica Franz-Martin
Stage Management by MacKenzie Sammons
February 5th-21st, 2027
Part historical fantasy and part theatrical thrill ride, Emilie follows 18th‑century physicist and mathematician Émilie du Châtelet as she returns from the afterlife determined to answer the question which is more important: love or philosophy, head or heart? In a whirlwind of wit, passion, and scientific discovery, Émilie defends her brilliance, her desires, and the legacy that would ultimately shape modern physics.
