REVIEW: Silent Sky explores wonders of cosmos and humanity

Since the dawn of humanity, people have always been asking questions about our place in the world

Silent Sky invites lakecity audiences to consider our place in the universe in both the physical and metaphysical sense with a slow but deep historical drama.

Since the dawn of humanity, people have always been asking questions about ourselves and our place in the world. The brightest among us endeavour to answer at least some of these questions and it was the work of Henrietta Swan Leavitt that answered one of our biggest, namely, where are we in the universe?

The Williams Lake Studio Theatre’s Silent Sky offers audiences both an astronomy and a history lesson as it takes audience members on a journey through the career of Leavitt and who she was, albeit in a fictional historical play.
