CHURCHILL ARTS COUNCIL
The comedy “The Life and Times of A. Einstein” presents a unique glimpse of a day in the life of the great scientist as seen through the eyes of his secretary, Ellen.
This performance is March 9 at the Barkley Theater, Oats Park Art Center.
The scene is Princeton, New Jersey, 1934. It is Einstein’s birthday, and a group of journalists (played by the audience) has gathered in his living room to interview him at his home as he turns 55. As usual, Einstein is late and his devoted secretary, Ellen, stalls by fielding questions, placating and humoring the reporters, explaining his theories, all the while attempting to keep the chaotic household running smoothly.
