ART, Yasmina Reza's award-winning and critically acclaimed comedy is at The Lowry from March 10 to 15.

The production stars Nigel Havers, Roger Lloyd Pack and Leigh Lawson. The play holds the most Olivier Award nominations ever, receiving five in 1997, and the New York production won both the Tony Award and the New York Critics Award for Best Play.

Art follows the fortunes of three friends who fall out when one of them spends a vast sum of money on an abstract painting to the total bewilderment of the others. The ensuing tension forces all three of them to re-examine their friendship and the direction in which it is going.
