ABOUT ART
Art, like beauty, may be in the eye of the beholder, but that doesn’t stop the three men in Yasmina Reza’s runaway hit play from having strong opinions about it. Serge has paid a small fortune for a large white-painted canvas. His friend Marc is scornfully unimpressed, while Ivan tried to avoid taking sides. What begins as a sparkling debate about the nature of art soon morphs into a witty and often poignant examination of friendship itself.
ABOUT HANK WILLIAMS: LOST HIGHWAY
Country and Western music icon Hank Williams touched the hearts of millions of people during his short career. Now, his unique magic as a performer and the simple spell of his yearning songs return to life in this unforgettable musical tribute. Packed with familiar melodies – including “I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry” and “Your Cheatin’ Heart” – the show recounts Williams’ often lonely journey from backwards Alabama obscurity to super-stardom at the Grand Ole Opry. Though his life ended tragically, Williams’ legend lives on through songs that celebrate the tenderness of the heart and the hopefulness of the human spirit.
