Word of Mouth Theater (WOM) headed by Jeremy-Benjamin Domingo will have a re-run on November 8, 2011 (N.B. Just got a message from Jeremy Domingo: of a staged reading of Steve Martin's Outer Critics Circle Award-winning comedy "PICASSO AT THE LAPIN AGILE."
In a legendary bar in 1904 Paris, a chance encounter between the young Einstein and Picasso sets sparks and stars flying. What does the world look like to a genius on the verge of transforming it? Their views on sex, fame and the future collide amidst an eccentric constellation of characters. Steve Martin - yes, THAT Steve Martin - brilliantly tackles these questions and more in his award-winning comedy, where philosophy and humor are seamlessly woven together in this surreal encounter of two great minds. Winner of the Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Off Broadway Play (Source: http://www.newvillagearts.org/mainstage.php)
Winner of 1996 New York Outer Critics' Circle Awards for "Best Play" and "Best Playwright," PICASSO AT THE LAPIN AGILE is set in 1904 in a bohemian Paris bistro, the Lapin Agile. Steve Martin's play revolves around an imaginary meeting between a passionate Pablo Picasso and a fiery Albert Einstein . The two young men on the threshold of fame vie for the attentions of a young lady and for each others respect in an hilarious battle of ideas about painting, probability, lust, and the future of the world. One year later, Albert Einstein published the Special Theory of Relativity. Three years later, Pablo Picasso painted Les Demoiselles D'Avignon.
