Description
Constellations is a two-person show that presents a single relationship, between the characters Marianne and Roland, as a series of possibilities. Marianne is a physicist who explains to Roland (and, to the audience) that the multiverse is a possibility, and so every outcome of every decision exists in an alternate version of our universe. The characters are seen to recreate, slightly, several important moments from their relationship. They meet, fall in love, get married or they meet, don’t fall in love, and don’t get married. They stay together, they break up. It’s an ingenious piece of theatre that allows for multiple views of the same two people.
