The translated French-language comedic-play raises questions about the true meaning of art and examines the friendship between three long-time friends.
What's Art Like?
The translated French-language comedy play raises questions about art and friendship between three long-time friends, Serge, Marc, and Yvan.
Serge indulges his love of modern art when he buys a large, expensive, but completely white painting. His friend Marc is horrified at the purchase, and their relationship suffers considerable strain as a result of their differing opinions about what constitutes "art".
Their mutual friend Yvan, is caught in the middle of the conflict, when he tries to please and mollify both of them.
Show Lacks Traditional Play Structure
The play is not divided into acts and scenes in the traditional manner, but the show does fall into 17 sections. Some of these sections are dialogues between two characters, several are monologues where one of the characters addresses the audience directly, and one is a conversation among all three.
At the beginning and end of the play, and for most of the scenes set in Serge's flat, the large infamous white painting is on prominent display.
Is Art Good for Kids?
The show offers a lot of dry humor that adults may enjoy but were not intended for younger audiences

Art on Broadway Background
Art: The History of the Show
Art is a French-language play by Yasmina Reza that premiered in 1994 at Comédie des Champs-Élysées in Paris. The play subsequently ran in London in 1996 and on Broadway in 1998. This production is performed in English.
2022: Alec Baldwin Was Set To Make His Return To Acting In This Show
Alec Baldwin was set to make his return to acting this season albeit through this Broadway show. The actor has not performed since the the fatal 2021 shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins during filming of the indie movie “Rust” in New Mexico.
Baldwin was both the lead actor and producer on that movie. Baldwin was holding an on-set gun loaded with live ammunition that went off that killed Hutchins during filming.
2024: Heavy Hitters Were Scheduled To Join Baldwin on Stage in Art
Heavy hitters Tony Shalhoub and John Leguizamo were slated to join Baldwin, while Tony winner Matthew Warchus signed on as director.
2025: Producers Drop Baldwin Et Al
In early 2025 the show producers dropped Alex Baldwin et al from the project as he was seen as too toxic for the show.
They instead went for James Corden, Neil Patrick Harris, and Bobby Cannavale.
This marks the first-ever Broadway revival of Yasmina Reza’s Tony Award-winning play Art (originally staged in 1998)
