Jonathan Waxman is a hugely successful artist. He receives exorbitant prices for his works, sight unseen. But a visit with his original muse and lover causes him to re-evaluate the success that now controls him. This Obie award-winning drama explores the artist's role in society, the commerce of art, and the complications of love and memory.

An L.A. Theatre Works full-cast performance featuring Adam Arkin, Jordan Baker, Anna Gunn and Randy Oglesby.

Editorial Reviews

NY Times

...you can tell when a play has gripped its audience, for no one seems to breathe, let alone shift in his seat. This phenomenon can be observed...at SIGHT UNSEEN, a smart and sad comedy by Donald Margulies.

NY Magazine

You certainly should catch...the exciting SIGHT UNSEEN.

DEC 05/JAN 06 - AudioFile

This Obie Award-winning play is one of the best entries in L.A. Theatre Works' impressive catalog. A 30-something successful artist (Adam Arkin) goes to England for his first foreign exhibition. He arranges to stay over with a former lover (Anna Gunn). The visit triggers thoughts about art vs. commerce, passion vs. compromise, keeping one's way vs. losing one's way in life. The cast (also with Jordan Baker and Randy Ogelsby) is superb, but Gunn stands out. She is completely convincing both in flashback scenes as a passionate young woman, humbled by being the muse for this promising artist, and in present-day scenes as a married exile in England coping with resentment and emotional erosion. Every line she delivers is richly shaded in a performance that captures the warmth and honesty of real life. G.H. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine
