“One drink. And if you never want to see me again you never have to see me again.”
Constellations by Nick Payne is a stirring love story with infinite possibilities. A quantum physicist and a beekeeper meet at a barbeque. They hit it off, or perhaps they don’t. They go home together, or maybe they don’t. In the multiverse, with every possible future ahead of them, a love of honey could make all the difference.
Directed by Al Dalton (Misterman, The Cure) and starring Julie Maguire (The Quare Fellow, The Abbey Theatre) and Aidan Moriarty (King Lear, The Gate Theatre), Constellations is the second in Re:Directing - a series of contemporary plays platforming Cork theatre directors produced by Cork Arts Theatre and funded by The Arts Council.
A tender, and at times, heartbreaking drama about love, free will, and the choices that define us.
