Manya - A Living History of Marie Curie
Time: 7:30 PM
Place: Keene State College, Mabel Brown Room, Student Center
Price: Free
Ages: Older crowd
On October 20, the Physics section of the Geology/Physics Department will sponsor a two-act performance based on the life of Marie Curie entitled Manya: A Living History of Marie Curie. The presenter, Susan Marie Frontczak, has performed this piece in over thirty states and in Europe. Colleagues who have experienced it rave about her performance using encomiums such as "outstanding" and "excellent." Ms Frontczak's background in computer science and engineering combined with her Polish-American heritage create her unique insights into the life of Madame Curie.
Susan Marie Frontczak will bring Marie Curie's many-faceted biography to life on October 20th at 7:30 PM in the Mabel Brown Room. Her performance is open to the campus community and general public, free of charge. We anticipate that our connections to area schools will also attract teachers and students to Manya: A Living History of Marie Curie.
