Albert Einstein and Pablo Picasso, both young, headstrong and passionate, come together in a fictitious meeting devised in the comic mind of Steve Martin. It's bohemian Paris, at the turn of the century and the earth has fallen quiet to listen to a conversation. Does art matter? Can science touch the heart? Is beauty truly in the eye of the beholder? Did Einstein and Picasso really only excel in their chosen fields in order to get girls? With a little help from a mysterious, blue-suede shoe-wearing stranger from the future, these topics get debated in the best possible of environments - your friendly neighborhood bar, the "Lapin Agile." Wit and wisdom combine, and the pleasure is all yours in this gem of a play.
