Set against the backdrop of the early 20th century, Lauren Gunderson’s Silent Sky tells the story of Henrietta Leavitt and her groundbreaking discoveries in the field of astronomy. Despite the constraints imposed by society upon women of her time, Henrietta's determination, intellect, and curiosity propelled her on a quest to unlock astronomical mysteries and grapple with life's profound questions. While this play delves into her journey and reminds us of the importance and value of perseverance, courage, and a relentless pursuit of passion, it is also a story that ends with unanswered questions.
