The object of the competition is science education and outreach. We would like to find ways of making scientific ideas, and in particular ideas in physics and mathematics, more accessible to the general public. In our opinion, scientific ideas are at their most accessible when framed within a play of exceptional artistic merit. The winners of the 2010-11 competition (which was open to all Princeton University students) we felt best exemplified this ideal.
The Princeton Science Playwriting Competition is made possible by the Physics Department, the Lewis Center for the Arts, and a grant from the National Science Foundation.
