"You can mix and match its stars, or change its context, but this enduring play always has the last word."
The New York Times
Elisabeth Vincentelli
"The three performers mesh together beautifully, with Harris providing just the right haughty snobbishness, Cannavale making comic exasperation into an art form, and Corden so lovable and vulnerable."

Great Play!
"Actors were awesome and excellent delivery of lines. Play is roughly 90 mins and was good for all of 90. Actors were very personable and took time to come out after the play and greet fans."

Loved it
"You really have to love dialogue and word play to love this show - and I did!!! James Corden was a standout, but Neil Patrick Harris and Bobby Cannavelle were excellent. Perfect runtime too - great experience. Worth it."

Loved it
"This show might not have been great but for the acting, which was amazing. All three actors were fabulous. And a James Corden speech will go down in theater history! "

Seriously thought provoking!
"A piece of questionable art starts a firestorm of emotions pitting friends against each other. I went to see the celebrity cast to be honest and walked away amazed by the story as well as the performances! Bravo!"

Art is Hilarious
"Corden, Harris and Cannavale are perfectly cast for this hilarious tale of friendship and disagreement over art. Their facial expressions, body language and dialogue are thoroughly entertaining and memorable. Their facial expressions plot is current and engaging! A must see!"

Highlights with some dry spells
"The show was very good. The three stars were obviously amazing, and they each had some great monologues. James Cordon stole the show in my opinion.
I gave it 4 vs 5 stars because in between some amazing dialog there were some dry / slow moments. I wish the pace was a little quicker."

About
Art
Bobby Cannavale (The Motherf*cker with the Hat, Glengarry Glen Ross), James Corden (One Man, Two Guvnors; The History Boys), andNeil Patrick Harris (How I Met Your Mother, Hedwig and the Angry Inch) return to the stage in the first Broadway revival of the Tony Award®️-winning play ART by Yasmina Reza. Directed by Scott Ellis (Pirates! The Penzance Musical, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel), this sleek and sophisticated comedy is coming this fall for a strictly limited engagement.
Three longtime friends. One ridiculously expensive painting. Is it art, or is it just the world’s priciest inside joke? What begins as a polite debate over aesthetics and taste devolves into a clash of egos and resentments. Can their friendship survive, or will one of them finally draw the line? It’s just 100 minutes of minimalist art, maximalist laughs, and a moving look at what we really see and forgive in the people we love.
