All right, people. The Penguin’s at it again. And by “it”, I mean another Penguin Summer Staycation contest.

Last month, the prizes were tickets to see “The Marriage of Bette and Boo” at Montgomery College’s Black Box Theater. This time, you — yeah, I’m talking to you — can win a pair of tickets to see “Picasso at the Lapin Agile” next weekend at the Backroom at Jackie’s (8081 Georgia Ave).

The comedy, written by that wild and crazy Steve Martin, rolls out a fable starring physicist Albert Einstein and artist Pablo Picasso. Both dudes are on the brink of greatness: Einstein’s two seconds away from cooking up his theory of relativity, and Picasso’s on the brink of cracking cubism. Hilarity ensues.

You don’t have to buy anything from The Penguin to enter the contest. If you win, the tickets cover your admission but not food, booze, taxes or tips, so plan accordingly.

If you’ve got $18 to pay for your own staycation, check out the show this weekend. And there’s more going on:
