Masterpiece Nathan Metcalf

4m, 6f / Comedy A one-act about a young artist on a journey to create her one great masterpiece. On the way she learns lessons about life, art, flamingos, playing the tuba, Georgia O'Keefe, really fat ducks, monkeys wearing roller skates, and the joy of coloring outside the lines. A strong ensemble, poetic language, and expressionistic visual elements make Masterpiece perfect for students or adults. Winner of the 2005 Wells Fargo Spotlight on the Arts Award for Excellence. "Just a lovely piece of theatre... We would be remiss if we didn't mention the visual elements, which were just stunning... There are just so many wonderful things about this, but the thing that overrode all the beautiful stuff was its innocence and whimsy." - Minnesota State High School League
