SYNOPSIS
"Nothing in life is to be feared; it is only to be understood" (Marie Curie)
Discover the remarkable story of Marie Curie in this faithful and evocative play that celebrates one of the most groundbreaking minds in history.
Performed by Abbe Lee and Mark Stratford, the play takes us on the journey from Marie’s early struggles as a young immigrant scholar to her rise as a pioneering scientist.
We trace the thrill of discovery, see the courage required to challenge convention, and witness Marie’s relentless pursuit of knowledge in a patriarchal world determined to hold her back.
Through moments of love, humour, obsession, and triumph, the play reveals the sheer strength and heart behind the unstoppable genius who - with the help of her husband Pierre - changed science and the world forever.
