Franz & Albert by Mario Diament American Premiere What happened when Franz Kafka and Albert Einstein met in Prague, in 1911? In Franz & Albert, his latest work, Mario Diament recreates the circumstances of this encounter and imagines what those two young geniuses would have said to each other. The result is a maelstrom of thoughts and ideas, a conversation where nothing is left out, from space-time to insects, from war and revolution to sex and marriage.
