Through a collection of songs, scenes, and monologues, The Theory of Relativity is told by a compelling array of characters. The musical’s plot is about young adults—undergraduate college students—searching for human connection. A physics test question prompts a group of them to consider their lives, and as they do, they begin to become aware of each other, of searching for their true identity and discovering their place in the world. Book by Brian Hill. Music and lyrics by Neil Bartram.
