<h2>Get Ready for E=MC Squared!</h2>
Join us for the world premiere of E=MC Squared, a Musical Journey through the Extraordinary Life of Albert Einstein. Not only was Einstein a Nobel Prize laureate in Physics (1921), and one of the great geniuses of all time, he led a life with indelible impact on history - including the Second World War. "E=MC Squared" explores the many roles of Albert Einstein - son, husband, father, physicist, advocate for German Jewish scientists and civil rights leader.
"E=MC Squared" covers the years 1896 -1955. EINSTEIN/NARRATOR(Randy Crenshaw) speaks from his Princeton, New Jersey study circa 1954, reflecting on his life. A younger ALBERT (Christopher M. Allport)leads us through vignettes of Einstein's life in this entertaining and educational musical. "E=MC Squared", written by Soroca &amp; Allocca, is an important work of art that will inspire and spark meaningful conversation about science, history, social justice and antisemitism.
