Information from Teatro Picadero.
On June 13, 2025, RELATIVITY, by playwright Mark St. Germain, author of FREUD’S LAST SESSION, will premiere at the Picadero Theater (Pje Enrique S. Discépolo 1857 CABA). The play stars Gabriela Toscano and Luis Machín, with the cast completed by Catherine Biquard, under Directed by Carlos Rivas, with performances from Friday to Sunday.
On a cold winter day in 1949, with the echo of World War II and the explosion of the atomic bomb still lingering in the air, a mysterious woman approaches Albert Einstein on the street with the intention of conducting a journalistic interview. The meeting will take place at the home of the genius considered the most important mind of the 20th century, guarded by his relentless private secretary. But what seems to be a simple and charming interview to explore the most well-known aspects of the eccentric scientist’s life gradually turns into a tense and unsettling meeting. The journalist insists with suspicious vehemence, probing into an enigmatic event from the past that Einstein wants to avoid.
However, the astute woman knows the secret that the great physicist has tried to hide all his life and unleashes a fierce, almost detective-like plot.
With growing emotional tension, the encounter erupts into a chilling revelation about the scientist that the entire world never imagined.
The great genius tries to expel the woman from his house, but it is too late; the hidden truth of his life has been revealed.
The innocent encounter of Albert Einstein with the pleasant woman who approached him on the street will have turned into a bond that will transform the lives of both forever.
