“R. Buckminster Fuller: The History (and Mystery) of the Universe” at NC Stage

May 5, 2027 - May 23, 2027
$15 – $54

Expelled from Harvard twice, trained as a naval engineer, after many personal, family and business crises, he learned that his life belonged to the Universe and humanity.

What followed were the explorations of one of the most restlessly inventive minds of the twentieth century. In this one-man tour de force, we encounter the life and mind of R. Buckminster Fuller — futurist, philosopher, poet, architect of the geodesic dome, artist of accelerations — to see how we already have everything we need to save the planet, if we just “think different” about how we are Operating Spaceship Earth!
