ART began as a French-language play by Yasmina Reza, and premiered in 1994 at Comédie des Champs-Élysées in Paris. The play subsequently premiered in London in 1996 and on Broadway in 1998, with English-language productions.
The comedy follows three long-time friends, Serge, Marc, and Yvan. Serge buys a large, expensive, completely white painting, and the trio battle with their differing opinions on what constitutes “art.”
ART most recently played on Broadway last year at the Music Box Theatre, beginning in August 2025, and starred Bobby Cannavale (Marc), James Corden (Yvan) and Neil Patrick Harris (Serge), with Scott Ellis directing. Check out photos here and read the reviews here.
