When last we saw our heroines...

(2005-2006)


Created with and performed by Karinne Keithley Syers and Katy Pyle and also performed by Taryn Griggs


Two labor activists are caught up in a time warp in 1905, the year that Einstein presents his Theory of Special Relativity, a key component in some theories of time travel. This experience not only compels them to wonder about the nature of time, but also to contemplate their own place in history—the impact of their activities, the likelihood that history will remember them.
