Written by Lauren Gunderson Directed by Gary Graves
A new play set on the eve of the Industrial Revolution. Estranged daughter of the notorious leader of the Romantic Movement, Lord Byron, young Ada only knows her father through his poetry--nothing more than a haunting memory from the past. But Ada sees the boudless creative potential in the "analytic engines" of her friend and soul-mate, Charles Babbage, inventor of the first mechanical computer. Ada envisions a whole new world where art and information converge...a world she will not live to see. Jane Austin meets Steve Jobs in this poignant pre-tech romance heralding the computer age of modern times.
