Requirements

Designed for the age of initiation on through adult, the experience of meeting Leonardo da Vinci is riveting for everyone from nine to ninety. The performance is most effective if presented in a theater setting, although a large library, meeting room, gym or "cafetorium" can also be used. Depending on the audience, the performance runs from sixty to ninety minutes, easily maintaining audience engagement.

I always offer a post-play question and answer period and I am always delighted to tell more stories about Leonardo, to learn from the expertise in the audience, and to build connections between the Italian Renaissance of 500 years ago and the New Renaissance emerging today.

With a carload of props and set pieces, I need to arrive one hour early and have easy access to the performance space. It is helpful to have a person on hand to help unload the heavier objects. Larger theater venues need to supply lighting and sound support including a state of the art wireless hidden microphone. It is helpful also to have six music stands available to display reproductions.
