Rheology is the newest work from Pulitzer Finalist and Obie Winner Shayok Misha Chowdhury
In Rheology, Misha joins forces with his physicist mother, Bulbul Chakraborty. Bulbul is obsessed with the mystery of sand: how it flows, like a liquid, but then jams into a solid. Misha is obsessed with his mother. But they're running out of time. In this boundary-pushing new collaboration, an artist son challenges his scientist mother to a high-stakes experiment.
Written and directed by Shayok Misha Chowdhury
In collaboration with Bulbul Chakraborty
Music by George Crotty
”cello accompaniment, by George Crotty, reminiscent of the melodrama in both Bollywood and in Bernard Herrmann’s film scores.”
New York Times
”For a promising artist in New York theater, Rheology feels like a special new intervention in the sandbox [Chowdhury] has claimed for his exploration.”
