TESLA'S LETTERS

"Wins you over by the soundness
of its conceit and the human weight of
its arguments ... undeniably potent."

- Chicago Tribune

A Chicago premiere
by Jeffrey Stanley
directed by Nick Bowling

Ideas about war and peace, the uses of science and the exercise of humanity reverberate in this witty, suspenseful, intellectual puzzle of a drama. An American student travels to the former Yugoslavia in 1997 to research the work of Nikola Tesla, the Croatian-born Serbian scientist who invented electricity as we use it today. But as she delves deeper into Tesla’s life and homeland, she is soon forced to make a decision about whether to get involved with the unexpected world of turmoil and suffering around her.

“A well-written, well-constructed drama ... pertinent, intelligent ... offers a multitude of rewards.”
- The New York Times
