Sagot, the art dealer 🧐
Played by Charles Easley

How does art get from the artist to the wealthy? Through art dealers like Sagot. He sees an artists latest work, pays "what's fair," only to turn a profit by selling it off! Does he have an eye for excellence or is he merely a grifter looking for his next sale?

The Countess, theoretical fanatic 🔭
Played by Alyssa Ryan

This bar-hopper is Einstein's latest fling. She, too, finds great joy in his mind and his theories. Does that make her a genius too, relatively speaking?

Einstein, pub-crawler and physicist 🔭
Played by Scott Douglas Wilson

This bar-hopper is a patent office worker by day, theoretical physicist by night. The real fun comes from his upcoming book regarding a unified field theory. However, it may come as a surprise that his is lonesome work. So, he fills the void by finding others who see the world as deeply as he does. But, who else wields a mind like Einstein's?

Suzanne, the muse and appreciator of beauty & intellect 👀🫴🐝
Played by Rachel Scherrer

Great minds have vision, ideas, thoughts which do not easily translate to words outspoken. Suzanne is Picasso's latest lover and, using her allure as power, captures glimpses of his world and intellect for herself. But, is she driven by self-amusement or does she truly find value in putting their heads together?

A Visitor, from another time and place entirely 👨‍🎤
Played by Jacob Erney

At the turn of the 20th century, Picasso and Einstein walk into a bar. Then, just when you think you know what will happen next, this hunk of burning love walks in! The question remains, how? And, if we're being honest, why?

Germaine, Waitress at the Lapin Agile and Freddy's Girlfriend 🍷
Played by Abby Dorn

So much of life is spent figuring out what you want. For Germaine, it's more about who. Boundaries are already blurred as her boyfriend is also her employer. However, the way she acts, you'd think the bar was all her own! Perhaps that's what she wants you to think...
