Comedy / Casting: 7m, 2f / Interior Scenery
This long running Off-Broadway absurdist comedy places Albert
Einstein and Pablo Picasso in a Parisian cafe in 1904, just before
the renowned scientist transformed physics with his theory of
relativity and the celebrated painter set the art world afire with
cubism. In his first comedy for the stage, the popular actor and
screenwriter plays fast and loose with fact, fame and fortune as
these two geniuses muse on the century's achievements and prospects
as well as other fanciful topics with infectious dizziness.
Bystanders, including Picasso' agent, the bartender and his
mistress, Picasso's date, an elderly philosopher, Charles Dabernow
Schmendimen and an idiot inventor introduce additional flourishes
of humor. The final surprise patron to join the merriment at the
Lapin Agile is a charismatic dark haired singer time warped in from
a later era.
"Highly credible and ... very funny. The subject matter is
daring.... You get giggles in plenty and] moments of
enlightenment.... The introduction of the final, exquisitely
selected visitor from the future is a master stroke."-N.Y. Post
"Consistently entertaining."-N.Y. Daily News
"Very engaging.... Martin sends ideas onstage in baggy pants,
with a cigar .... mix ing] the sublime with the ridiculous so] that
they can't be easily disentangled.... Very good fun."-The New York
Times
