Call for Silent Sky production team
Immediate call for Stage Manager, ASM, lighting and costume designers and crew
Silent Sky
by Lauren Gunderson
Directed by Zelda Dean
Production dates: January 25 to February 11, 2023
Langham Court Theatre, 805 Langham Court
Our production of Silent Sky, cancelled during the pandemic, has been rescheduled with many of the original cast.
The true story of 19th-century astronomer Henrietta Leavitt explores a woman’s place in society during a time of immense scientific discoveries, when women’s ideas were dismissed until men claimed credit for them. Social progress, like scientific progress, can be hard to see when one is trapped among earthly complications; Henrietta Leavitt and her female peers believed in both, and their dedication changed the way we understand both the heavens and Earth.
