Theater at The Ruins: "Art" by Yasmina Reza, Directed by Leo Patrizio

Thursday, August 14, 2025

7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

‘ART’ by Yasmina Reza, translated by Christopher Hampton, is an award-winning comedy that explores themes of friendship, conflicting values, and, of course, art.

This production, directed by Leo Patrizio, brings the raw talent of local actors to the Hood River community.

"One of Marc’s best friends, Serge, has just bought a very expensive painting. It’s about five feet by four, all white with white diagonal lines. To Marc, the painting is a joke, but Serge insists Marc doesn’t have the proper standard to judge the work. Another friend, Yvan, though burdened by his own problems, allows himself to be pulled into this disagreement. As tensions escalate and bonds are tested, it becomes clear that this conflict goes beyond the painting itself."
