A Picasso

WORLD PREMIERE
By Jeffrey Hatcher
Directed by John Tillinger
May 23 - June 22, 2003

A bracing new play from the author of Off-Broadway's Tuesdays with Morrie. Set in Paris during the height of the German Occupation, Pablo Picasso is interrogated by the beautiful and mysterious Miss Fischer who has been hired by the Gestapo. In this cat-and-mouse game of intrigue, Picasso is forced to authenticate three paintings, each assumed to be "a Picasso." In this timeless collision between art and politics, an enticing tension begins to mount with art, sex and the lure of power at its core.
