"Red" is, in many ways, a typical high-society play; two characters (Mark Rothko and his assistant) have spirited discussions about art and commerce. It is very short. Anyone familiar with the lifespan and ethos of abstract expressionism will not learn much about the history of the period, but it certainly serves an educational purpose for those who don't. In lieu of character conflict and plot development, the play tends to revolve around long-winded speeches about art. This is a good play and it is engaging and thought-provoking throughout, but it feels as though it has been trimmed and edited to accommodate. Intellectual pretensions tend to take precedence over a desire to explore a comprehensive portrait of either Rothko or the relationship between master and apprentice.

Master abstract expressionist Mark Rothko has just landed the biggest commission in the history of modern art, a series of murals for New York's famous Four Seasons Restaurant. In the two fascinating years that follow, Rothko works feverishly with his young assistant, Ken, in his studio on the Bowery. But when Ken gains the confidence to challenge him, Rothko faces the agonizing possibility that his crowning achievement could also become his undoing. Raw and provocative, Red is a searing portrait of an artist's ambition and vulnerability as he tries to create a definitive work for an extraordinary setting.
