ART

ART play imageA synopsis

Three men, long-time buddies, fall out over a painting purchased by one of them.  Will friendship triumph over ART?

After running in London’s West End for 8 years, ART went on to Broadway starring Alan Alda, Victor Garber, and Alfred Molina.

ART, a comedy, initially about the purchase of a predominately white canvas, quickly proceeds to put men and their career choices, relationships and friendships under a microscope. The dialogue is sharp, witty, and humorous, and leads the audience to a better understanding of “What Men Want”.

See talented Perth Studio Theatre actors take this comedy on.  Performances start Thursday, Sept 8

And don’t forget to see our current lobby art featuring the work of well-known Canadian Broadcaster turned “artist”, Chris St. Clair.

Come out and meet Chris on Thursday, Sept 8 from 5 pm -10 pm.
