Émilie: La Marquise du Châtelet Defends Her Life Tonight
By Lauren Gunderson
Directed by Katie Martin
Part historical fantasy and part theatrical thrill ride, the play 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.
This talented team of community members and University of Louisville students invite audiences to rediscover a woman whose mind changed the world.
Passionate. Brilliant. Defiant. Émilie defends her life tonight.
