BRIEF SYNOPSIS
A two act play with music. Based on actual events.
Oppenheimer, Christopher Nolan’s Academy Award winning film, failed to mention her. The New York Times dubbed her, “the Jewish Mother of the Bomb.” The Nobel Prize Committee nominated her more than any scientist in history. Lise Meitner never won.
Why does the Jewish woman scientist who discovered nuclear fission, continue to be ignored? Albert Einstein dubbed her, “the only real physicist I have ever met,” while today’s scientific community hails her achievement as the greatest physics discovery since E=MC2.
This play will solve the mystery and award Lise Meitner her rightful new legacy: “a physicist who never lost her humanity” . . .
Fueled by a combustible mixture of intimate encounters, actual events and imaginative storytelling, The Woman Who Changed Everything launches this forgotten woman to stardom.

BRIEF SYNOPSIS:
A one act play with Gospel Choir. Based on an actual interview.
In 1796, fifty-three years prior to Harriet Tubman's heroic escape, Martha Washington's favorite house slave risked death by absconding from America's largest slave-owning family. Her act of insurrection invoked political humiliation for the President who used his office to commit criminal acts in an attempt to recover his 'human chattel.' Ona Judge was never caught.
A poignant love story filled with danger, The Book of Ona Judge . . . When Freedom Sings is enhanced by the power of a dozen traditional African American Spirituals. The score's contemporary arrangements, performed 'a cappella', are America’s Emancipation Proclamation.
Prepare to rethink everything you have ever been taught about George, Martha and that stupid cherry tree.
