In "Picasso at the Lapin Agile," playwright Steve Martin—yes, THAT Steve Martin—delivers an imaginary meeting between Pablo Picasso and Albert Einstein in 1904 at the Lapin Agile (French for The Nimble Rabbit) a little bar in Paris known for its frequent visits by writers and artists. Taking place just a year before Einstein published his Special Theory of Relativity and three years before Picasso introduced cubism with his Les Demoiselles dAvignon, the setting is full of anticipation of the 20th centurys advent.
