The Play

The comedy, which raises questions about art and friendship, concerns three long-time friends: Serge, Marc and Yvan. Serge, indulging his penchant for modern art buys a large, expensive, completely white painting. Marc is horrified and their relationship suffers considerable strain as a result of their differing opinions about what constitutes "art." Yvan, caught in the middle of the conflict, tries to please and mollify both.
