Synopsis:

This translation of the provocative French play explores what happens
among three friends when one of them buys a large, very expensive
piece of art – a canvas completely covered in white paint with a few
white lines. ART is a clever discussion about the nature of art, and
also the nature of friendship.

Cast Breakdown:

3 Males -

Marc:  Marc is friends with Serge. Marc is a bit cynical and very
critical of Serge’s latest purchase.
Age - between 30 and 60.

Serge: Serge has just bought a work of art. He is very taken with his
acquisition, and can’t abide by anyone else not loving it as much as
he. Age – between 30 and 60.

Yvan: Yvan is friends with both Marc and Serge. He doesn’t like
confrontation, and is trying very hard to keep the peace between Marc
and Serge and their differing opinions of the “art”.
Age – between 30 and 60.
