The Half-Life of Marie Curie
September 12-14
Preview Night September 11
Written by Lauren Gunderson and Directed by Tracy Dickerson.
When scandal threatens her career, Marie Curie retreats to the seaside home of her friend, physicist Hertha Ayrton. In this true story of friendship, resilience, and science, two brilliant women confront public scrutiny, personal loss, and the weight of history, finding strength in each other as they redefine what it means to live a life of purpose.
The Messenger
Bainbridge Performing Arts and our partners at Bainbridge Island Theater Lab (BitLab) bring you a staged reading of The Messenger, a new play in progress by Dinah Manoff and directed by Rachel Noll James.
A deeply moving and unapologetic piece of theatre, The Messenger is as much a political powder keg as it is an intimate portrait of two women trying to make sense of the world from two different ends of the conversational divide. Equally timely and empathetic, the play challenges audiences to consider whether real dialogue and shared understanding can bring us together.

Fuselage by Annie Lareau
Actor and playwright Annie Lareau combines humor and compassion to reflect on her experience surrounding the Pan Am 103 bombing over Lockerbie, Scotland. Meant to be on the flight with 35 Syracuse University classmates, she was left behind in London. Her narrative weaves the lives of young artists with the voices of Lockerbie locals who responded to the tragedy, set against the backdrop of prophetic nightmares and a terrorist plot. Through grief, media scrutiny, and self-punishment, Lareau’s journey becomes a poignant tribute to treasuring relationships in an unpredictable world.
