American Repertory Theater of WNY will be presenting the third show of the 2014-15 season with a production of Steve Martin's PICASSO AT LAPIN AGILE, March 5th and runs to March 28th at ART in the Box, 16 Linwood Avenue, Buffalo NY. Known as an existential comedy, PICASSO AT LAPIN AGILE is Steve Martin's tongue-and-cheek poke at the deep philosophical pieces penned by French playwrights like Jean Paul Sartre or Eugene Ionesco. In this Victor Hugo a go-go knee-slapper, Martin creates an alternative universe where famed theoretical physicist Albert Einstein and famed theoretical romantic and painter Pablo Picasso meet at the Parisian bar Lapin Agile and wax philosophies, ponder existence, and, with help of a time-traveling 'country boy', brave the new 20th century world and the future beyond.
