'Picasso at the Lapin Agile' at Kelsey Theatre

The Pennington Players present Steve Martin's "Picasso at the Lapin Agile."

The show performs at 8 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays and 2 p.m. on Sundays from April 24. to May 3. Tickets are $18 for adults, $16 for seniors, and $14 for students. The show will take place at the Kelsey Theatre, located on 1200 Old Trenton Road, West Windsor.

Einstein and Picasso walk into a bar, and… The punch line to this joke is in this imaginative comedy, written by comedian Steve Martin (yes, that Steve Martin.) While the play is not exactly a classic, you can’t get more museum quality than these two classic visionary figures, one who is on the verge of publishing his Theory of General Relativity and one who is close to painting Les Demoiselles d’Avignon—his ground-breaking foray into modern art. And you can’t get funnier than this imaginary meeting between the two in a bar at the turn of the 20th Century.

There will be a talkback with the cast after the May 1 performance.
