Here's how Long Wharf bills the play, which originally debuted in 1993 at Chicago's Steppenwolf Theatre: "What happens when Picasso and Einstein walk into a bar? Intellectual fireworks, verbal gymnastics, amorous intentions and the arrival of a mysterious man in blue suede shoes. On an October evening in 1904, Albert Einstein and Pablo Picasso end up at the same small bar in Paris - the Lapin Agile. The two young geniuses, joined by an eccentric cast of characters, spar over art and science, their respective libidos, where inspiration comes from and the promise and dreams of the 20th century. Steve Martin brings his zany and profoundly intelligent brand of humor back to Long Wharf Theatre. --– No joke is too low brow and no idea too high brow to be considered in this crowd pleasing comedy."

The creative team for Picasso at the Lapin Agile will include Michael Yeargan (sets), Jess Goldstein (costumes), Don Holder (lights) and David Budries (sound).
