MACH 33

Founded in 2013, MACH 33: The Caltech Festival of New Science-Driven Plays is a one-of-a-kind play development program, culminating in readings of new theatrical works focused on science by playwrights from the Greater Los Angeles area. Over the past decade, MACH 33 has helped nurture the evolution of dozens of exciting new plays focused on the ideas, history, and human drama of science.

MACH 33 energizes the conversations about scientific, mathematical, and technological questions by staging readings of new, unpublished, unproduced plays. Festival playwrights have the unique opportunity to work with science advisors from Caltech and JPL, so we focus on plays that could benefit from this science mentorship. The readings are open to the public and present a discussion with Caltech/JPL scientific panelists after the show. Our casts and crews feature professional actors and directors as well as students and members of the Caltech/JPL community.
