CONSTELATIONS with Stars Jake Gyllenhall & Ruth Wilson

British playwright, Nick Payne received a Laurence Olivier nomination for his celestial & cerebral play CONSTELLATIONS ('12.)  This 1 act 2 actor play stars Ruth Wilson (The Affair) as Marianne, a Cambridge physicist and Jake Gyllenhaal (Acad Award nom. actor) as Roland, an apiarist.  The 2 meet at a mutual friend's party and their relationship and their lives are played out in multiple scenarios in a superior sliding doors format. This clever play is a thespian's dream of stimulating theater.  Scenes are replayed between short blackouts in countless ways along a tenuous time line.  Similar situations are rehashed with varying dialogues, reactions & interpretations as if by happenstance.  The intriguing premise built upon the mysterious relationships between choice & preordained destiny.  This is a beguiling, philosophical examination of life's infinitesimal realm of possibilities, with the foreknowledge of one's mortality.   Are there parrallel universes, simultaneous existence?  Is time irrelevant?  Are we free to choose or change our minds?    This intellectual play will be a stellular choice for an erudite audience.  Did I mention it stars Jake Gyllenhall; Hubbuh Hubbuh.
