Di Esperienza is a dissection of the man, the myth and the self-doubt of Leonardo da Vinci, widely considered the most diversely talented person ever to have lived. Leonardo da Vinci comes face-to-face with three of his incomplete works of art-Judas Iscariot (from The Last Supper); La Gioconda (better known as the Mona Lisa) and Isabella d'Este (whose portrait he sketched but refused to complete the painting) to answer the question scribbled hundreds of times throughout the 20,000 pages of his notebooks: 'Tell me if anything has ever been achieved.' Di Esperienza is only the third play in the English language to be written about Leonardo da Vinci, coinciding with his 557th birthday. Developed in partnership with The Leonardo and Utah Shakespearean Festival's New American Playwrights Project.

      Di Esperienza was masterfully written and directed. The actors were convincing. When Da Vinci ended his last line, I felt I knew him. He ceased to be a figure in history and became a member of humankind. I can't say enough about the language used in the play. It was literatue worth studying. I enjoyed the play just for the dialogue, even though there was much more. Collapse
