The Farnsworth Invention

"Vintage Sorkin and crackling prime-time theater... breezy and shrewd, smart-alecky and idealistic." —Newsday

Dec 1-10, 2017

Written by Aaron Sorkin
Directed by Gina Alonzo

It’s 1929. Two ambitious visionaries race against each other to invent a device called “television.” Separated by two thousand miles, each knows that if he stops working, even for a moment, the other will gain the edge. Who will unlock the key to the greatest innovation of the 20th century? The ruthless media mogul? Or the self-taught Idaho farm boy? The answer comes to compelling life in The Farnsworth Invention, by Aaron Sorkin, creator of The West Wing, The Newsroom, and The Social Network.
