The Hand-to-Mouth Players announce auditions for

Yasmina Reza's thought-provoking comedy, ART. Audition will be held on Tuesday, September 8 at 7:30 PM at the Trinity-BoscobelUnited Methodist Church, 275 Church Street, Buchanan, NY. 

 

The cast is comprised of three male actors. This modern masterpiece about friendship and modern art will be performed between October 22 and November 1st, 2009.

French playwright

Yasmina Reza garnered international acclaim with her play Art (1994), for which she received the 1998 Lawrence Olivier Award for best comedy and the 1998 Antoinette Perry (Tony) Award for best play, as well as Molière awards for best author, best play, and best production.

Art concerns the cataclysmic effect on three friends, Serge, Marc, and

Yvan, when Serge purchases an expensive work of abstract art—a large painting consisting of white lines on a white canvas. As the three men engage in an ongoing debate over the value of the painting, emotions run high and the conflict escalates to the point of nearly destroying a long-standing friendship.
