Very intriguing play. I found many of the "punchlines" didn't get the response as possibly intended. It was more focused on thought rather than one liners thus it made the experience more interesting than fun.
An interesting play. I enjoyed the experience.
The show was wonderful and oversold! As we were late in purchasing, we received seats in Row A to the far side and were unable to see some of the actors when they were behind the bar. Nonetheless, we strongly recommend the show. The leads were all fabulous and believeable, and the script was pure genius. Enjoy!

Picasso at the Lapin Agile, written by Steve Martin, debuted in 1994 and has since been a staple of modern American theatre. Returning to his roots after 20 years of movies, Martin delivers a knockout punch with a style of wit that belongs solely to him. Since writing Picasso, Martin went on to write the successful plays The Underpants and Wasp, the former of which debuted at The Geffen Playhouse. Martin, who’s never been one to shy away from uncanny stories, writes a play that’s fast, funny and surprisingly powerful.
Blending Martin’s early non-sequitur comedy and his sophisticated story telling, Picasso tells the unusual story of Albert Einstein and Pablo Picasso meeting in a legendary tavern on the eve of their biggest innovations in their respective fields. The two geniuses map out the century together with the help of other 20th century heavy hitters making surprise appearances.
