SUMMARY:ADA AND THE ENGINE
DESCRIPTION:ADA AND THE ENGINE\nPlaying in the Long Beach Playhouse’s Studio Theater\nJune 7 – July 5\, 2025\nBy Lauren Gunderson\nDirected by Kelsey Weinstein \nThe Industrial Revolution dawns as young Ada Byron Lovelace (daughter of the flamboyant and notorious romantic poet\, Lord Byron) sees the boundless creative potential in the “analytic engines” of the genius of the age\, Charles Babbage. A precocious intellect herself\, Ada and Charles form a romance of the mind as she envisions a whole new world where art and information converge. Their ideas lead to the first mechanical computer in Lauren Gunderson’s music-laced story of love\, friendship\, and the edgiest dreams of the future as Jane Austen meets Steve Jobs in this poignant pre-tech romance heralding the computer age. \nPURCHASE YOUR TICKETS HERE:\nCHOOSE YOUR DATE:\n\nThursday\, July 3\, 8pm – Special Thursday Night Show\nFriday\, July 4th\, 8pm – NO SHOW DUE TO THE HOLIDAY\nSaturday\, July 5\, 8pm – Closing Night\n\nPLEASE NOTE: The Studio Theater is on the 2nd Floor.
