What might happen if Albert Einstein and Pablo Picasso met in a Parisian cafe?
The Ringgold Playhouse will play out that scenario when it opens “Picasso at the Lapin Agile” Thursday, Aug. 29, for two weekends of performances.
“It’s the turn of the 20th century, and two soon-to-be influential figures meet by chance one evening in a Paris bar,” describes Anthony Mrotek, director.
“In a play written by Steve Martin – yes that Steve Martin – we see what would happen if a young Albert Einstein and a young Pablo Picasso had the chance to converse for one night. Perhaps the topics would vary from Unified Field Theory to how an idea comes to be – but, mostly they talk about women.”
