Today, my wife and I saw Constellations at TheatreWorks of Mountain View.
I had never heard of this particular play and thought it might be a musical, but it turned out to be entirely different.
The basic idea of the plot is to imagine a universe where all possibilities are explored sequentially. In this incarnation, the two main characters, a beekeeper (Robert Gilbert) and a Cosmologist (Carie Kawa) play and endlessly replay the same conversation (and various romantic interludes) with some subtle variations.
The Mercury News review of this play is spot on about the many possibilities explored. I sometimes felt bored with the repetition, but it was an exciting concept.
