About the play
Suppose that life exists in a multiverse — a set of parallel existences that contain infinitely different futures. The possibilities in our lives are, quite literally, endless. Every possible event that could happen, does happen, in one universe or another. And if two lovers meet — are drawn together in every version of their existence — every possible happy ending or heartbreak that could happen to them, will.
Marianne, a physicist, and Roland, a beekeeper, meet at a party. They hit it off, and go for a drink. Or perhaps they don’t. They go home together, or maybe they go their separate ways.

Perhaps Marianne is engaged to someone else, or perhaps Roland is. Maybe she breaks his heart, maybe he breaks hers. Perhaps they come together and their love story can finally take root and grow, or perhaps it will be tragically cut short.
“Constellations” explores how even the smallest decisions we make in our lives can dramatically alter the course we take. It is a spellbinding exploration of love, science, quantum theory, and the infinite possibility for heartbreak or hope.
