ART is set in Paris, the play follows three friends, Serge, Marc, and Yvan. One day their 15 year friendship is shaken when Serge shows his friends a new, staggeringly expensive piece of art he has purchased. A white canvas with white lines on it. Upon hearing the price of the painting, Marc calls it a “piece of white shit” and can’t believe that one of his oldest friends spent a large sum on it. Yvan tries to balance out the argument by being slightly more positive about it, however this also infuriates Marc as he struggles to see how others can’t see his point of view. This argument is a catalyst to a night where tempers fly and opinions are thrown at each other, seemingly attempting to destroy their friendship as quickly as they can.

ART is a hot-headed, laugh out loud, hilarious look play about subjective art can be, and how differing of opinions can leave people struggling to understand the viewpoints of others. Its razor sharp words and humour start the show with a bang and snowball into a play that will leave you questioning everything you knew about modern art and your opinion about others. ART is a play that leaves audiences buzzing.
