Louis Slotin Sonata
At exactly 3:20 p.m. on Tuesday May 21, 1946, Louis Slotin's hand slipped a small, practically insignificant blunder, except that Slotin was the chief-bomb builder at Los Alamos, and at that fateful moment he held in his hands a plutonium bomb core named "Rufus",causing perhaps the most legendary lab accident of The Manhattan Project. Weaving past, present and future in a phantasmagoric dreamscape, the story illuminates an eager young scientist's hope, regret and heartbreak as the elemental forces he so enthusiastically studied now wreak havoc on his body and his mind.
"a bizarre and beautiful play... totally engaging." Louis Lopardi, artzine.org
