How is it I'm feeling so educated about cosmic phenomena and ruthlessly (though affectionately) mocked all at once? Oh, it's because I just read RIPPLE, this delightfully funny, weird, and informative play about the nature of black holes...and actors. Excellent metatheatrical fun here from Rachael Carnes -- plus, you know, it's totally based on true events! Ancient, ancient, ANCIENT events. So that's a bonus.

A spectacular intergalactic preparation of theatre that is just so entertaining and so much fun. Well done!

What is the best way to represent two black holes colliding over a billion years ago? Put some moody actors scared of intimacy and a half baked director on stage and let em' orbit.

I admire RIPPLE for all of it's weirdness, it's metatheatricality, and it's commitment to a joke/commitment to science. It's dumb (in the best way). It's smart. It's a great 10-minute script.
