On today’s episode, Matt Tamanini is in conversation with Sir Kenneth Hawkins to discuss the new musical “Picasso in Paris” that will be presented in an abbreviated concert form at 54 Below on Monday, April 14. Not only is Hawkins one of the show’s writers, but the project began after he discovered a previously unknown work of Pablo Picasso’s that revealed the artist’s acts of resistance while living in Nazi-occupied France during World War II.
In the conversation, the two discuss the shocking discoveries that led to the piece, what Hawkins hopes the audience learns from the musical, and the ambitious plans that the writer has for the story.
