Circumstances Affecting the Heat of the Sun's Rays

By: Amanda Quaid
Directed by: Anna Lyse Erikson
Starring: Geoffrey Arend, Tara Lynne Barr, Scott Brick, Jake Green, Monica McSwain, Emily Swallow

You may not know her name, but Eunice Newton Foote made groundbreaking discoveries about the greenhouse effect in the 1850s. Her experiments showed that different gases, including carbon dioxide, absorb and trap heat, an early milestone in the history of climate science. And even though her findings were published in a leading scientific journal – a rarity in the days of a male-dominated field – her work remained virtually unknown until recently. Now, thanks to playwright Amanda Quaid, we have a dramatized portrait of the scientist’s life at the time she published her pioneering study, which lends its name to the title of the play.

Incudes a conversation with playwright Amanda Quaid.

Recorded at The Invisible Studios, West Hollywood in November 2024.
