Part of the empowering Broadway Bound Theatre Festival, Bengal to Berlin is a vibrant musical retelling of some hardly known history of quantum physics.
When his quantum theories are rejected by the Western scientific establishment, the young Indian physicist Satyendra Bose, in an act of intellectual rebellion, sends his groundbreaking quantum theory directly to Albert Einstein. Against all odds, Einstein responds, and Bose begins his trek across a divided world where imperial rule suffocates Indian intellect. 

Let them pretend the world began in Europe. We’ll keep building our truths Light still finds its way through cracks.
