Curie Me Away! Matheatre Performance

CURIE ME AWAY!

By Matheatre

The radical story of a persistent woman who changed our understanding of the universe.   Marie Sklodowska Curie grew up in occupied Poland, where it was illegal for girls and women to pursue higher education. She is now revered as the first woman to win a Nobel Prize. Her discovery of the elements Polonium and Radium changed the world, as did her legacy as a champion for education as an act of resistance. In this award-winning musical, core chemistry concepts become a lyrical metaphor in a biography of discovery.
