January 2008. Dan was a mathematical wiz who worked in high finance, massaging money for his bosses.
One night, still hungover from a party, he crashed his white BMW in the middle of Dumfriesshire, and for the first time begins to appreciate the magnificence of the Universe.
Georgina is an astronomer at the Royal Observatory, Edinburgh. Ever since she was a small child she knew that was what she wanted to be, but now she faces a challenge that will make or break her future.
This is the story of Dan and Georgina as they look back at their first days together.
Raise a toast to the happy couple, and rejoice in the wonder of the night sky.
Seeing Stars is told as a play with songs and music.
