Description The convergence of geniuses and the fact that both the scientist Einstein and the painter Picasso are dealing with the same creative process ... Neil Armfield's direction is uncluttered and light-handed, keeping the play going at a cracking pace.
The performances are delightful. Original Sydney season extended from 23 December 1994
