Einstein Ponders

It is night in the laboratory. Einstein sits dejected at his desk - no one understands what he is trying to explain, they think he is too complicated, too messy, and then all these formulas. He consoles himself with some violin playing, but eventually falls asleep over his papers. Then a magical little figure appears, Albert, and shows him in a dream a completely different way to tell stories.

The journey that follows takes us into space and explains gravity, magnetism and much more - but also deals with understanding, compassion, friendship and poor violin playing. The performance consists of two actors, a puppet and shadow theatre.

Press reviews: "Facts and values, but also fun and quirky." (SvD) - "Pygmé Theatre's charming science lesson." (DN)
