“A serious comedy about the business of art” –Northeast Public Radio
True Art by Jessica Provenz is a sharp and funny tale of ambition, deception, and self-discovery in the high stakes and cutthroat art world.
When an idealistic art history major lands a dream job at a prestigious museum, she’s swept into a whirlwind of champagne toasts, secret deals, and whispers of a lost painting by Michelangelo. But as she untangles the web of secrets around her, she begins to question not just who she can trust, but the limits of her own ambition. True Art is a playful and thought-provoking look at the cost of chasing success and the search for authenticity.
I’m excited to bring Jessica Provenz’s TRUE ART to our Script in Hand series. Jessica has a remarkable gift for blending her unique sense of humor with deeply incisive storytelling, crafting characters who are wonderfully flawed, ambitious, and achingly real. Her play masterfully examines characters struggling with their own moral compass as they navigate the murky waters of deception and desire. TRUE ART is both wildly entertaining and deeply thought-provoking, and I can’t wait to share it with our audience."
