The Star Above Us, explores how Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin began her journey into discovering what elements the Sun was made from.
The play explores how Cecilia's discovery wasn't trusted and celebrates the science behind stars.
"When I looked up to the stars, I didn't see celestial discoveries just hanging to be claimed. To be auctioned off in life's great hunt for legacy. They were alive. As was I. Burning. As was I. In need of understanding. As we all are."
Written by Megan Cronin in 2018, The Star Above Us is looking for funding and a Theatre partnership.
