About the show
Mrs. Einstein is a story of love and passion, trust and betrayal, grounded in new scholarship on Mileva Marić contribution to the creation of the theory of relativity. The drama draws on biographical studies and the personal correspondence between Mileva and Albert, as well as letters to Helena Savić, to build an intimate portrait of a scientific — and above all personal — story long kept silent. At its centre stands Mileva — mathematician, wife and mother — who in textbooks is usually a footnote, and here is given the central voice.
