Physicist Albert Einstein is the subject of a performance to be presented at the University of Colorado at Boulder Nov. 22 in a one-man theatrical performance presented by Len Barron titled "Walking Lightly: A Portrait of Einstein."

The title refers to Einstein's contributions to the development of Quantum theory and his postulations on light quanta in 1905 and to the fact that he walked to work almost every day of his life.

The performance will be in the Forum Room of the University Memorial Center, Euclid Avenue and Broadway, at 7 p.m. and is free and open to the public.

Barron, an admirer of Einstein who is uncannily similar in appearance, has toured the country performing at museums, libraries, schools and churches for the past decade. A playwright, performer and educator, Barron graduated from CU-Boulder in 1967 and Antioch-Putney Graduate School in 1969.

He has taught at CU, San Diego State University, Prescott College in Arizona and Dull Knife Memorial College on the Northern Cheyenne Reservation in Montana.
