Einstein's Wrong about Everything
This play is based on true events, possibly true events, and blatantly untrue events.
The year is 1956, and Princeton autopsist Thomas Harvey just decided to steal Einstein's brain. That decision now has him on the lam from both the authorities and a group of neo-Nazis led by a woman who may or may not be related to the Elephant Man. And now he just found out his new roommate is the heroin-addicted Beat writer William S. Burroughs. What will he do next? Will it make sense? Will it involve getting help from some of the most famous figures of the 20th century?
Joseph Green's play strikes at the very heart of these questions and more. EINSTEIN'S WRONG ABOUT EVERYTHING may make you laugh, make you cry, make you reconsider every thought you've ever had since reaching the age of reason. Or not. Let's not get crazy with our expectations.
