Frenetic and Fascinating

This play comes up short as a deep history (see Gleick's "Genius" for that), but does a great job of laying out in broad strokes the diverse and idiosyncratic nature of one of the recent histories' greatest minds. I wish I had been able to see Alan Alda perform this piece, because based on how it read I can imagine that he did Feynman great justice.
