“ It is the Eugene O'Neill Theater Center's pleasure to recommend Jacob Marx Rice and his play Uncertainty/Principle as a finalist for our 2015 National Playwrights Conference. The play rose through a competitive, anonymous, multileveled selection process that took nearly nine months to execute. As one of 59 finalists out of more than 1,300 submissions, it is the value of the page that has allowed this work to prosper in such a competitive selection process. Our readers especially responded to the compelling, multidimensional protagonist, as well as the plot’s adept balance of spiritual and scientific themes. ”
