What if Pablo Picasso met Albert Einstein at a bohemian Parisian nightspot on the same night it was visited by a time-traveling rock star on a mission? This is just one of the many zany questions raised in comedian Steve Martin's most popular play, Picasso at the Lapin Agile. Under the direction of Peter Gould, some of the New England Youth Theatre's most experienced actors tackle this challenging, fast-paced script while simultaneously inviting the audience to "think in new ways about art and love and life." Performances are PG-14, and are not intended for young children.

Oct. 23 – Nov. 1, 3 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., $7.50/students, $9.50/seniors, $11.50/general, New England Youth Theatre, 100 Flat St., Brattleboro, (802) 246-6398, www.neyt.org.
