Audition Notice:
SILENT SKY
By Lauren Gunderson

PRESENTED BY AURORA THEATRE.

When Henrietta Leavitt begins work a the Harvard Observatory in the early 1900s, she isn't allowed to touch a telescope or express an original idea. Instead, she joins a group of women "computers," charting the stars for a renowned astronomer who calculates projects in "girl hour" and has no time for the women's probing theories. As Henrietta, in her free time, attempts to measure the light and distance of stars, she must also take measure of her life on Earth, trying to balance her dedication to science with family obligations and the possibility of love. The true story of 19th-century astronomer Henrietta Leavitt explores a woman's place in society during a time of immense scientific discoveries, when women's ideas were dismissed until men claimed credit for them. Social progress, like scientific progress, can be hard to see when one is trapped among earthly complications; Henrietta Leavitt and her female peers believe in both, and their dedication changed the way we understand both the heavens and Earth.

"A startling, entertaining true story of a brilliant, history-making woman- hitherto unknown to many of us"

"Two sisters trade backhanded compliments on the day of their mother's funeral, disagreeing on her last wishes and legacy while their husbands strain to keep the peace. A comedy-drama on motherhood, memory, and the never-ending struggle to justify our roads not taken." A FREE staged reading tomorrow night at Dream Like Bubbles in Wong Chuk Hang. COME we'll have a bit of original theatre, some wine and an opportunity for you to meet the playwright and give feedback. Paul Johnson also wrote 'A Minor Case of Murder' which was recently produced by CSR at The Fringe Club.

Thank you HKELD!

Timing is everything in a stage production no matter the size of the stage and CSR Theatre Company are perfectionists at their timing. I am not normally a fan of one act plays but this kept me enthralled and in laughter the whole way through and eager for the next performance.
