ART

by Yasmina Reza, translated by Christopher Hampton, directed by John Romeo

February 12, 13, 14, 2016 (Fri.-Sun.)When an art lover buys what is in essence a pure white painting for a mind-boggling sum, his best friend can barely contain his outrage. Yet a third friend, struggling with his own problems, gets squeezed in the middle of their growing argument. Lines are drawn and they square off over the canvas, putting their friendship on the line. Yasmina Reza’s international hit won a Laurence Olivier Award, a Moliere Award and a Tony Award for Best Play.
