Silent Sky
Silent Sky
Men taking credit for women’s work — 100 years ago, it was the norm. It’s what happened to scientist Henrietta Leavitt, who in 1900 got a job with the Harvard Observatory — a place where women scientists could work, but the big telescopes were off limits, and they didn’t get recognition for their discoveries. Leavitt’s personal and professional lives (and the tension between the two) are the subject of Silent Sky, a staged reading based on a play by Lauren Gunderson and performed by A Public Fit.
Shows Friday at 7p and Saturday at 2p.
