COMPANY: Complicite

VENUE: Novello Theatre, Theatre Royal Plymouth

A Disappearing Number weaves the story of two love affairs, separated by a century and a continent. The first happens now. The second, set in 1914, tells of the heartbreaking collaboration between the greatest natural mathematician of the 20th century, Srinivasa Ramanujan, a penniless Brahmin from Madras in South India and his British counterpart, the brilliant Cambridge don GH Hardy.
Concieved and directed by Simon McBumey with an original score by Nitin Sawhney.
