The play 'Art,' written by Yasmina Reza, delves into the tumultuous dynamics of friendship through an explosive argument sparked by a friend’s purchase of an abstract painting that is merely an all-white canvas. In this new Australian staging, the story retains its sharp wit and provocative themes, exemplified by the character Marc, portrayed by Richard Roxburgh, who expresses disdain for the art and his friend's decision, leading to dramatic conflicts with his peers Serge and Yvan. Notably, the production also features Damon Herriman as the ambitious Serge and Toby Schmitz as the more reserved and mediating Yvan, under the direction of Lee Lewis, thus ensuring a modern interpretation of this classic work that has achieved acclaim on both Broadway and in London.
