Krannert Center for the Performing Arts celebrates the UNESCO 2025 International Year of Quantum Science and Technology with a re-envisioned performance of Quantum Voyages, a performance piece conceived and written by University of Illinois faculty Smitha Vishveshwara (Physics) and Latrelle Bright (Theatre Studies), with music by Stephen Taylor (Composition-Theory). Quantum Voyages premiered in 2018 at the University of Illinois in celebration of Nobel Prize-winning physicist Anthony Leggett’s 80th birthday.
Guided by Sapienza, the spirit of knowledge, two voyagers, Terra and Akash, enter the microscopic realm of atomic landscapes and quantum conundrums to discover a magnificent and baffling world foreign to everyday human experience. In moments of strife, quantum sages—real-life physicists—briefly appear to share their wisdom.
Tickets will go on sale August 21.
