Miners Alley Playhouse presents
A Picasso
By Jeffery Hatcher
(Co-author of Tuesdays with Morrie)
Directed by Robert Kramer
Paris, 1941. Pablo Picasso (Chris Kendall) has been summoned from his favorite café by German occupation forces to a storage vault across the city for an interrogation. His questioner; Miss Fischer (Paige Lynn Larson), a beautiful "cultural attaché" from Berlin. Her assignment: discover which of the three Picasso paintings recently "confiscated" by the Nazis from their Jewish owners are real. The ministry of propaganda has planned an exhibit, and only the great artist himself can attest to their authenticity. What Miss Fischer finds leads to a cat-and-mouse drama about art and politics; sex and truth; and a twist at its climax.

With performances every Friday and Saturday at 7:30.p.m. and Sunday’s at 6:00 p.m. *Sunday, Nov. 1 will be at 2 p.m.-no evening performance on this date.* On Saturday, October 3, Miners Alley holds its "Second Saturday" talk back with the cast after the performance.

Jeffrey Hatcher co-wrote the stage adaptation of Tuesdays with Morrie with author Mitch Albom and Three Viewings, a comedy consisting of three monologues - each of which takes place in a funeral home. One of his most interesting works is a stage adaptation of The Turn of the Screw, Henry James's psychological thriller.
