The FOURTH PlAY in our ‘21-22 Season.
Feb 17 through Feb 27, 2022
By Lauren Gunderson
In Lauren Gunderson’s exploration of music, math and genius, Ada Byron Lovelace bucks the conventions of her Victorian time. Although her dear friend Charles Babbage conceives of the first “analytical engine” or proto-computer, Ada has a vision for his innovative machine that will change our world forever.
“[Ada and the Engine] is a rare and special artistic achievement: an intelligent play about intelligent historical people that has been crafted by intelligent theatre artists for an intelligent audience."
