Nashville Children’s Theater: “Einstein Is A Dummy”

Nashville Children's Theatre presents:

“EINSTEIN IS A DUMMY”

Book and Lyrics by Karen Zacarias

Music by Debbie Wicks La Puma

Jan. 30-Feb. 18, 2007

Maybe nobody thought much of Albert Einstein when he was twelve. Maybe he was always late and maybe he forgot stuff and maybe he got lost. A lot. Maybe he stumbled over his words every time he tried to speak to Elsa, the prettiest girl in Herr Schloppnoppdinkerdonn’s music class. Maybe the music students were supposed to play “Boring Ballad #4 in C Major” for the Illustrious Grand Fancy Schmanzy Recital, but young Albert couldn’t get it right. Maybe Einstein was a dummy – or maybe he was just writing a new song that nobody had ever heard before. Maybe, just maybe, he was sorting out the relationship between mass, energy and the speed of light. Join us for an imaginative, exhilarating, hilarious, inspiring musical romp through a fictional day in the young life of the greatest mind of the twentieth century – and his talking cat.
