Predictor

Predictor is the real-life story of Margaret Crane who, in 1967, defied all odds and expectations to become the inventor of the first home pregnancy test. One review described it: "It is important, relatable, daring, and magical. Meg Crane’s story is worthy and relevant, but Jennifer Blackmer’s telling of Meg’s story achieves the magic that only the theatre can truly generate. It's engaging, funny, frustrating, heart-wrenching, and vital." It follows Meg through the development process and the frustrating roadblocks she encounters as a woman in a male-dominated field. It uses 1960s cultural devices like TV ads and gameshows to help tell the story. This show is a fast-paced, fun, and thoughtful look at one of the forgotten women of history.
