Paris, 1941. The heavy tread of Nazi jackboots on the streets outside. The underground bunker, where the celebrated painter, Pablo Picasso (Danny Adcock) has been detained.

Picasso is visited by Miss Fischer (Sharon Millerchip), an attractive officer from the German cultural ministry, and is faced with an impossible decision: in exchange for his life he must surrender one of his beloved works of art to the regime. A perilous game of cat and mouse ensues as Picasso attempts to outwit his dangerously beautiful opponent and save his masterpiece.

Jeffrey Hatcher's A PICASSO is part history lesson, part intriguing debate about art, politics, sexuality and love.

A PICASSO is about a very dynamic relationship with wonderful fiery characters. Picasso is as you'd imagine him to be: he's arrogant, he's wonderful, he's cheeky, he's witty, he's a womanizer - but Miss Fischer meets him head to head. It's sexy and funny, it has tangible humanity, it's about art, history and regrets, but ultimately it's about the relationship between these two fabulous characters.
