Icarus at the Edge of Time is a mesmerizing tale set in outer space about a boy who challenges the awesome might of a black hole. Based on the children’s book by physicist Brian Greene, this futuristic re-imagining of the classic myth takes audiences of all ages on a whirlwind voyage through space and time to the very edge of understanding. Featuring an original score by Philip Glass, script adapted by Brian Greene and David Henry Hwang, and film created and directed by Al + Al, Icarus at the Edge of Time will be performed by the Chattanooga Symphony and narrated by Brian Greene.

Brian Greene is co-director of Columbia’s Institute for Strings, Cosmology, and Astroparticle Physics (ISCAP) and is recognized for a number of groundbreaking discoveries in the field of superstring theory. His books—The Elegant Universe, The Fabric of the Cosmos, and The Hidden Reality — are widely read, inspiring The Washington Post to call him the “single best explainer of abstruse ideas in the world today.” He has also had many media appearances, from Charlie Rose to David Letterman, and his three-part NOVA special based on The Elegant Universe won an Emmy Award and a Peabody Award. He is co-founder of the World Science Festival.

VIP Patrons are invited to attend a private reception with Brian Greene at the Tivoli Center from 10:00 p.m. - 11:00 p.m. following the event. The VIP Reception offers heavy hors d’oeuvres and complimentary drinks.
