7:30PM, LIVE MUSIC

Every other Tuesday for the rest of the calendar year, BEDLAM will be presenting live virtual play readings in an effort to raise funds and awareness for the #BlackLivesMatter movement and associated organizations working toward eliminating race-based discrimination.

China Dreams or The Conservation of Parity traces the life of Wu Chien-Shiung, an overlooked Chinese-American physicist who worked on the Manhattan Project, and later went on to disprove the Conservation of Parity, a feat that would win the Nobel Prize in Physics for the first Chinese physicists – but did not include her. This is the first new play in Bedlam’s upcoming reading series.
