About This Show

Sophie Germain. Mathematician. Trailblazer. Woman. Neglected by history. Until now. The extraordinary true story of a forgotten genius explodes onto the stage in the premiere of this new musical. Set against the backdrop of the French Revolution, the team behind Edinburgh Fringe sell-out PART A bring Sophie’s story to life through an ebullient pop-rock score, charting the highs and lows of a woman determined to succeed in a system not built to allow it.

Coinciding with International Women’s Day and British Science Week, THE LIMIT celebrates one woman in science who can inspire anyone today.

Part of Vaults Festival
