Play The Unveiling
by e=mc2

Plot: The Unveiling explores the beauty of science and the artiste in every person through the journey of a commoner -Joshua Matthews and the Genius of Albert Einstein. The play savours on the complex questions that have mystified humanity since its inception. What is Life after death? What is the divine pattern of the universe? What is the essence of life? Does God exist? The complexity of these questions have enchanted many scientists through the ages and Albert Einstein was one of them.
The play is a journey of these two people who meet and discuss these questions in a completely different realm of existence. Each question seems to be behind a veil and each answer needs to be unveiled. While the genius in Einstein has answers to many questions, he has a few questions himself. Einstein once quoted-The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. The unveiling is a celebration of the basic instinct of the human mind- Curiosity.
