As the final coup de theatre, Herbert Siguenza will be performing and painting onstage during the tour de force workshop production of A Weekend With Pablo Picasso. Though he is best known for his comedic work with Culture Clash, Siguenza was first a visual artist. As a young boy, he was given a photo album of Pablo Picasso at work in his studio. Stunned by the playfulness and creative freedom of the 77-year old artist, he told his mother: "When I grow old I want to live like this man."

Now Siguenza, at the top of his game as a theatre artist, brings his writing, acting and visual art skills to an unforgettable one-man show. Directed by REP Associate Artistic Director Todd Salovey, A Weekend With Pablo Picasso invites the audience into Picasso's private studio for an intimate and revealing weekend.

Because Picasso said that his art was his autobiography, this new workshop production will include live and projected images of art from Picasso and his contemporaries. Spend "a weekend to remember" that puts the audience inside Picasso's "Le Californie" art studio on the coast of France and inside the creative mind and work of one of the most inspiring artists of modern history.
