The Half-Life of Marie Curie
Ensemble Theatre presents
The Half-Life of Marie Curie

13 Jun 2025 to 12 Jul 2025

Ensemble Theatre is thrilled to present the Australian premiere of Lauren Gunderson’s The Half-Life of Marie Curie, a heartfelt tale of female friendship and empowerment by one of America’s most-produced playwrights.

 

The Half-Life of Marie Curie tells the true story of two remarkable women devoted to scientific and social change. 

 

When two Nobel Prizes prove inadequate armour against a scandalous affair, Marie Curie turns to fellow scientist and trusted confidant Hertha Ayrton for literal and emotional sanctuary. Together they weather the storm of heartbreak, public scrutiny, and self-doubt. 

 

Filled with heart and humour, don’t miss this “frisky, feminist crowd-pleaser" (Time Out New York) that perfectly captures the resilience of two fearless pioneers.
