Written and directed by Wesley Savick, Einstein’s Dreams is wry and wild, funny and intellectually stimulating, provocative and surprisingly moving. Alan Lightman’s best-selling novel has inspired dozens of theatrical productions – Savick’s, premiered by Underground Railway Theater in 2007, is Lightman’s favorite. Set in Switzerland, 1905, the play portrays Einstein, a modest patent clerk in a new marriage, struggling to make ends meet while in the back of his mind re-conceiving time. Music is by Evan Harlan. Alan Lightman will lead conversations about the play after the November 18 and 20 performances; after almost every other performance, conversations will be led by actors from the cast and scientists from MIT and Harvard.
