Limelight Actors Theater’s latest offering lives up to the company’s tagline: “Theater with a twist.” The new production, “Art,” is chock full of comedy, intellect and drama. Characters Marc, Serge and Yvan—friends for years—hit a bump that puts their friendship to the test. The test comes after one of them purchases an all-white painting at an exorbitant price. With laughter and poignancy, they square off over the canvas. Lines are drawn and the bonds that tie each man to the others are stretched to the breaking point.
“Art,” a play by Yasmina Reza, shows Sept. 12-13, 19-21, 26-28 and Oct. 3-4 at Gilroy Center for the Arts, 7341 Monterey St. Matinees will show Sept. 14 and 28. Tickets are $20 per person. For information, call (408) 472-3292.
