    In this smart and witty exploration of faith, science, love and ambition, Leigh Sangold, a Nobel prize-winning astrophysicist, takes on the definitive scientific challenge: to use physics to prove whether God exists. Leigh’s pursuit of a renewed sense of purpose for her life threatens her closest relationships with Saul Lieberman, a tenderhearted Rabbi who’s been in love with her since childhood, and her lover, a competitive post-doctoral student who is the son of a Christian Scientist. Splitting Infinity tests the boundaries of relationships and zealous ambition. It seeks to answer the questions we have about ourselves, each other, and the universe through the scientific and religious equation.

        Clever, layered, intelligently written play that was perfectly cast! The interwoven themes of science and religion were explored in a passionate and unique way. This is nothing groundbreaking conceptually, but at the same time it's compelling and engaging. A play you are unlikely to see anywhere else with a phenomenal set design that is as 3 dimensional as it is metaphorical. A great conversational piece. Collapse
