Einstein - Enacted by Naseeruddin Shah

A Solo By Naseer Sir was amazing in the way it kept the audience amused despite talking about certain scientific concepts which are difficult to understand ...theory of relativity and gravity.  Naseer is amazing to watch and especially the ease with which he got the accent and the voice modulation. Also loved the way the stage was used and the interaction  with the audience. 

Personally, i believed the humor element was lower...but given it was Naseer who was playing the crowd was very happy to burst out into laughter on ....often repeated one-liners/jokes.  Also believe such the play because of Nasser attracted many first time Theatre go-ers and therefore the relatively friendly audience ready to burst into a laugh.

Few of the lines i liked from the play:

Its never wrong to ask questions.  My teacher punished me because I asked to many questions or my face looked i was about to ask a question.

When i was a teen ...My father wanted me to choose a profession. He therefore chose that of a electrician.

I failed the course of an electrician and became a Physics teacher. Those who are not good at anything become teachers.
