Albert Einsteins fight for the successful recognition of his theories has had a profound effect on how people around the world have lived their lives in the 20th and 21st Centuries. EINSTEIN! the show endows the pursuit of scientific truth with the propulsive force of a gripping thriller.As EINSTEIN! begins, we are introduced to the ghost of Albert Einstein (1879-1955), who briefly muses on his status as a pop culture icon before hurling the audience with him into the past, 1914 to be exact. The world has just entered the first global war, and Einstein (age 35 at this time) is struggling with his greatest achievement, his Theory of Relativity. He is opposed by adversaries coming up with their own Relativity theories, as well as members of the scientific establishments who are dismissive of Einsteins efforts. Some dont buy into the theory. Others reject it out of hand due to pure antisemitism.His obsession with his work impacts his family, with a destructive effect on his marriage to his Serbian wife Mileva, also a scientist. It negatively affects his ability to be a proper father to his children, especially his adoring son, Hans Albert.Jack Fry is the playwright and performer, and embodies all the characters in the narrative. Directed by Tom Blomquist. Presented by Sierra Madre Playhouse.Photo credit: Ze Castle Photography.
Ages: 10 to Adult.
