What is Marie Curie the Musical about?
Physicist. Pioneer. Parent.
Marie Curie travels from her native Poland to study at Sorbonne University in Paris, certain that she can make a name for herself and change the course of science in the process.
Studious and steadfast, the young scientist quickly discovers Radium, a new chemical element, making history as the first woman to be awarded the Nobel Prize. She has achieved her life’s ambition, but she is faced with an overwhelming moral dilemma. Whilst Marie is discovering the lifesaving potential of Radium to cure cancer, factory workers handing the substance are succumbing to the insidious grip of radium poisoning. Her discovery has the potential to kill and cure.
