BWW Reviews: The Black Rep Presents Intriguing and Engaging Production of ART Through 5/23
by Chris Gibson
- May 10, 2010
The saying goes that 'one man's trash is another man's treasure', and that old adage is brought into sharp focus by Yasmina Reza's provocative script for her play ART. But, the play also examines relationships, and how tenuous they can become when fundamental disagreements occur between friends. Reza's work is funny, thought provoking and, in the end, touching in the way it handles these two distinct themes. The Black Rep's current production of ART is a masterful presentation, buoyed by three terrific performances, as well as stellar design and direction.
