Review: MARIE CURIE at Charing Cross Theatre

Polish born Marie Skłodowska-Curie was a driven, focused and determined woman who consistently met with derision and hostility from the male dominated scientific community of her day. Through sheer willpower and an innate self-belief, she overcame opposition and changed many of society’s beliefs about women and their potential role in non-traditional endeavours. Her fortitude and tenacity remains an example of what women can achieve, and continues to shine a spotlight on the shameful and complacent attitudes of a patriarchal system which in many ways still belittles women’s achievements and potential.
