THE REP: Red, this production provides a rare glimpse of an artist through the lens of his relationship with his naïve young assistant, who must choose between appeasing his mentor—and changing the course of art history. When his assistant challenges his artistic integrity, Rothko must confront his own demons or be crushed by the ever-changing art world he helped create. The Rep’s first-time partnership with the Arkansas Arts Center provides a depth of artistic exploration never before offered to Little Rock audiences. Amid the swiftly changing cultural tide of the late 1950s, Red is a startling snapshot of a brilliant artist at the height of his fame, providing Arkansans a unique opportunity to witness both the artists’ life and work, all within a five mile radius. Performances will be at 7 p.m. Wednesdays, Thursdays and Sunday evenings, 8 p.m. Saturday evenings and 2 p.m. Sundays, Oct. 23-Nov. 10. Reservations are recommended. For ticketing information, visit therep.org or call (501) 378-0405.
