PICASSO: Le Monstre Sacré
A visceral, uncompromising portrait of Pablo Picasso…
Undisputed genius, visionary artist, yet Picasso’s obsession with his work often destroyed those he professed to love…. Brilliantly incarnated by Peter Tate in a challenging, powerful, intelligent study, Picasso passionately defends his reputation in an explosive, often disturbing voyage of self-revelation, inviting the audience to be his jury… Should we condemn his proclivities, or forgive him for Art’s sake?

A conversation with co-Writer/Director Guy Masterson, “Picasso: Le Monstre Sacré,” Odyssey Theatre Ensemble
“DEEPLY SATISFYING AND MOVING… a profound tribute to male friendship… far more than a ‘buddy’ story… powerfully nourishing and fulfilling.”
