Metzger’s portrayal is about the man behind the intellect, creating a portrait of the 20^th century's greatest mind, but who harbored dreams of being a solo violinist. He also brings to life the unbridled curiosity that drove Einstein to seek answers to the mysteries of the universe. Intrigued by Einstein’s eccentricities, which captured the affections of people throughout the world, Metzger and his wife Laya Gelff-Metzger researched and wrote the script, which she also directed. Metzger is proud that this is the only show endorsed by the Einstein family.

 

The event has been underwritten by generous financial support from Freeport-McMoRan Copper and Gold, the Freeport McMoRan Foundation, National Endowment for the Arts, Arizona Commission on the Arts, and the Graham County Community Foundation.
