How much can you purchase a painting with nothing on it? Would it not be “artwork”? Marc’s best friend Serge offers just bought a very expensive – and incredibly white – painting. To Marc, it really is a joke, and as fight lines are drawn, old friends utilize the painting to stay ratings. With friendships hanging in the balance, the question turns into: how much is a work of “art” worth? A Tony Award champion for Greatest Play and Oliver Award champion for Best Comedy.

Includes interviews with translator Christopher Hampton, and stars Bob Balaban and Brian Cox.
