[Sci-tech-public] Upcoming play and discussions

Hello, all,

There will be performances of the play, "QED," about the life of 
physicist Richard Feynman, at the Broad Institute between 30 April - 
4 May, in conjunction with the second annual Cambridge Science 
Festival (hosted by the MIT Museum).  After the performances there 
will be discussions with various people (including yours truly, on 3 
May), as detailed on the attached flyer.

The play was originally commissioned by Alan Alda (of M*A*S*H fame), 
who starred in the role of Feynman in both LA and NYC when the play 
premiered a few years ago.  We also had some very successful bench 
readings of the play around that time at MIT and the Boston Museum of 
Science.  It's a compelling script and should be fun for one and all 
--

best,
Dave
