Not one of Williamson's most highly regarded plays - it's probably best remembered as the one Madonna appeared in - but it's terrific. Moves like a freight train, fabulous structure, very funny, different characters: the dogged art dealer Simone, the swinging dot com couple, the ruthless tycoon who's closeted and his wife, the drunken old corporate art dealer. The stakes are high, the pace is frenetic, it's theatrical and great fun. It also makes some serious points too about love of art and the importance of it. The world of the super rich and the art world felt real.
Madonna had good taste picking this.
