JAW Play Reading: The Sunnyview Elementary Art Show By Rob Smith
As the annual Sunnyview Elementary Art Show comes to a close, the newly formed Art Committee locks themselves away to determine which student will win The Golden Paintbrush. While it was once the decision of the Art Teacher alone, now she must mix it up with the new Assistant Principal, a veteran Fifth Grade Teacher, and the eager Head of the PTO; all with their own points of view. In this comedy, penned by local playwright Rob Smith, lines are drawn, perspectives are skewed, and truths are shaded as the Arts Committee struggles to determine whether the art or the artist matter more, if emotion or execution create the best art, or if art should even be judged at all.
