Written by Yasmina Reza. Translated by Christopher Hampton.

A dazzling comedy of friendship, taste and the fine art of falling out.

This amateur production of “Art” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
What price would you pay for a piece of art? More to the point, what price would you put on friendship? When Serge buys an all-white painting for an eye-watering sum, his friends Marc and Yvan are left gobsmacked. Is it a masterpiece, or a joke? As opinions clash, long-buried tensions and comic resentments bubble up, with explosive, hilarious results.

Winner of the Olivier Award for Best Comedy, Tony Award for Best Play and Evening Standard Award for Comedy of the Year, Yasmina Reza’s “Art” (translated by Christopher Hampton) is a modern classic: razor-sharp, provocative and wickedly funny. Prepare for an evening of quick wit and awkward truths, as three old friends discover just how fragile the bonds of friendship can be. Join us this October for this unmissable production by HIADS.
