How would you feel about your best friend if he suddenly did something so incredibly stupid it made you question your very friendship? In Yasmina Reza’s comedy “Art,” when an art lover buys a high-priced minimalist painting, his best friend goes ballistic and a third buddy gets caught in the middle. “Art,” an international hit, is a 1998 Tony Award winner. The New York Times calls it “A remarkably wise, witty, and intelligent comedy. It has touched a universal nerve.” Presented by 4th Wall Productions on Friday and Saturday February 3, 4 at 8pm and Sunday February 5 at 2pm at the Beacon Theatre in Beacon. $15. (845) 226-8099.
