October 23 and 24, 2023 Staged Reading

Why was Nikola Tesla nearly written out of history? Who was his mistress? What secrets of his did a famous palm reader reveal? What was his obsession with pigeons? Why did one of the world's greatest geniuses die penniless?
​
The play probes into the brilliant and undaunted psyche of this Serbian-American inventor who made massive breakthroughs in the transmission of electric power, exposing his human vulnerability through the eyes of the mostly-overlooked women who loved him. Scenes and songs range from hilarious to heart breaking, malicious to transcendent, humiliating to triumphant. Tesla's Mistress is a show about the endless bounty of creation and love revealed in strange and unexpected ways.
​
You can help intensify the energy! Our goal is to raise $10,000 for a reading with all of the songs on October 23rd & 24th, 2023 in the Twin Cities, MN
​
​
Donations will be used for honorariums for the cast, a technician, director, orchestral arrangements, rehearsal & performance space, publicity, etc.
​
This is the next step in achieving the ultimate goal of a fully-staged elaborate production. Any amount is precious and welcome!
