[Clague Playhouse News]

*Silent Sky*

by Lauren Gunderson

Directed by Curt Arnold

*Auditions:*  Tuesday, December 5 and Wednesday, December 6 at 7:30 pm.

*Show Dates:* March 9 - 31, 2018 (Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 8pm,
Sunday at 2pm)

*SILENT SKY* presents the real-life story of Henrietta Leavitt and the
women working behind the scenes at the dawn of modern astronomy. Henrietta
leaves her family in Wisconsin to join a group of women “computers” at the
Harvard Observatory in the early 1900s, where she is not even allowed to
touch a telescope or express an original idea. Balancing her dedication to
science with family obligations and the possibility of love, she makes a
breakthrough discovery that enables astronomers to calculate the distance
between Earth and remote galaxies and stars. A celestial romance and true
story of discovery.
