Constellations
The Lab at Duluth Playhouse
Duluth Playhouse Underground is thrilled to present Constellations, a spell-binding love story, running April 11 - 27, 2024 at The Lab. Told forwards, backwards, and sideways, Nick Payne’s “romantic bombshell” (Variety) asks big questions while affirming life, love and companionship.
After theoretical physicist Marianne and beekeeper Roland meet at a backyard barbecue, their lives cascade into an unimaginable tapestry of potentialities. They fall madly in love, or perhaps they don’t. Maybe they break up, and when they run into each other at a dance class, Marianne reveals that she's now engaged to someone else and that's that. They might get married, or it’s possible their time together is tragically short. Set against the backdrop of the multiverse, Roland and Marianne’s romance plays out over a myriad of possible lifetimes.
