Who won the Nobel Prize, kept people awake by playing bongo drums at Los Alamos and wrote a best-seller? No one but the brilliant and irrepressible physicist Richard Feynman. Film and television actor Norman Parker will perform a solo tribute, delivering Feynman's wit and wisdom in his own words.
No Feynman evening is complete without bongos -- we also present Tom Rutishauser and Ralph Leighton. Mr. Rutishauser, a cellist, played bongos with Feynman and taught Alan Alda to play bongos for his role as Feynman in the play “QED.” Ralph Leighton (and Feynman) co-authored the bestseller “Surely You're Joking Mr. Feynman.”
