Director's Note:
Director's Note:
We have wanted to put on
a production of Art since reading it
as students. We were immediately
captured by its easy, effortlessly comical dialogue and the completely real
definition of friendship it constructs, but never really thought we could pull
it off until watching Nic, Ethan & Mike working on it together. The innate camaraderie
they share gives their
portrayals a natural flow. Now, we are
so pleased to be able to share it with you.
We hope you will embrace as we did the quick banter, frank phrasing and
exquisitely awkward pauses that make up this Tony Award winning play.
