"Constellations" by Nick Payne investigates romance and fate based on the idea of parallel universes. A woman quantum physicist (Marianne) and a male beekeeper (Roland) meet at a barbecue. They hit it off, or perhaps they don't. They go home together, or maybe they go their separate ways. The play supposes that there is a multiple set of parallel universes in which any number of versions of our lives and deaths play out simultaneously. So the audience gets to sample the infinite simultaneous paths that two people can take to be together or be apart. The experiment of this multi-ethnic rendition is: with Marianne being Dominican and Roland being Anglo, can it heighten our perception of the workings of their hearts? Stars Maria Isabella Rojas and Michael Garrett Boxleitner, directed by Cristina Duarte.
