Williams Street Rep presents "Picasso at the Lapin Agile"

Written by Steve Martin When Steve Martin, the Emmy- and Grammy-winning wizard of wit, imagines a meeting between two of history’s greatest minds, the result is nothing short of genius. In this hilarious and thought-provoking play, the year is 1904 and two aspiring twenty-somethings named Albert Einstein and Pablo Picasso hang out at the same gritty Parisian bistro. In his first comedy for the stage, Martin plays fast and loose with fact, fame and fortune as the two geniuses muse on the century’s achievements, as well as other fanciful topics with infectious dizziness.
