Hyde Festival Theatre’s first foray into professional theatre brings Rob Johnston’s specially commissioned play, Einstein’s Daughter, to the Festival Theatre.
It is set over a single night in the kitchen of an isolated farmhouse in the north of England. Maggie lives there with her father Andrew, a celebrated scientist, where they lead a life that is as conventional as it is idyllic.
Into this blissful, humdrum picture bursts Cath, a childhood friend of Maggie’s, away for ten years but now back to tell Maggie something she should have learned a long time ago.
By the end of the night nothing is left of the picture-box idyll so carefully constructed by Andrew and taken for granted by Maggie. By the end of the night nothing much is left of anything at all.

"One night. One secret. One final act."
This play will be staged in the Festival Theatre Studio space on the first floor with access only by stairs.
