About the Production

 

 

Art meets science in an unusual yet thought-provoking comedy by famed actor, comedian, and musician Steve Martin. The Lapin Agile is a bar in Paris frequented by colorful characters — but on a particular evening in 1904, two young men arrive whose accomplishments will define the twentieth century. Their names are Pablo Picasso and Albert Einstein. Their discussions of art, science, love, and relationships are profound, yet border on the absurd. Before the evening ends, they are joined by a third great figure of the century: a country boy from the future who sings rock and roll.

Content note: This production contains discussion of adult themes.

I'm Herbert  by Robert Anderson  |  Directed by Regina Ford
