About the Show
“A VERY FUNNY COMEDY OF MANNERS. It’s an impeccably tailored piece of work.” – Ben Brantley, The New York Times
Bobby Cannavale (The Motherf*cker with the Hat, Glengarry Glen Ross), James Corden (One Man, Two Guvnors; The History Boys), and Neil 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.

About the Theatre
Music Box Theatre
239 W 45th St
New York, NY 10036
The Music Box theatre was built by prominent theatrical producer Sam H. Harris in 1921. His built the theatre specifically for his good friend Irving Berlin, to house Berlin’s famed Music Box Revues. The theatre had many successful shows including Chicago, the Maurine Dallas Watkins play that served as the basis for the hit musical. The Music Box was also a favorite house for Cole Porter and George and Ira Gershwin.
This theatre has been lauded over the years as the “best looking house on Broadway” and is one of the few Broadway houses to have only been home to a legitimate theatre. The seats in the theatre are also unique, due to their unusually large and round shape. The Music Box was co-owned by Irving Berlin’s estate and the Shubert Organization until the Shuberts assumed full ownership in 2007.
