Higgs/Job  

"And let me say, again, this is all you are ever going to have, you are only ever going to be able to call chaos your home (smashing the orange piece above his head), your art, your science, your religion."

​

​HIGGS/JOB intertwines the discovery of the Higgs Boson with the timeless narrative of the Book of Job. The play explores the tension between order and chaos, both in scientific exploration and human suffering. As scientists and characters from the Book of Job grapple with fundamental questions of existence, the piece delves into the search for meaning in a universe filled with uncertainty, blending humor, poetry, and philosophical inquiry into a unique theatrical experience.

Featuring: Sarah Hecht, Ariel Keren, Annie Levy, Shawn Shafner, and Franny Silverman
