The Professor offers the audience his hopelessly flawed account of the Artists life. The pompously erudite professor comically exposes the flaws in the conventional art world, while his hapless pupil struggles to conform to the Professors demanding narrative. Throughout the performance, the audience will be prompted to actively participate while reflecting on their own struggles to be creatives in todays world. Infusing comedy, satire, and a reflection on what it means to be an artist, this performance is not to be missed.

The Professor is better than you, smarter than you, more creative than you, and has more success than you can ever hope for. Due to this imbalance between an unrequited genius and the countless hopeless creatives of Charlotte, The Professor has selflessly decided to help you all. Through comedy, satire, and paper maché, the character created by Nathan Matthews (To Be Sure, Mall Goth, GASP), is here to guide you through the tumultuous waters of creativity in the modern age. Aided by Michael Gentry portraying The Artist and Oscar Soto Mitchell creating Energy and supplying the visual aspects of the performance, we hope to make you feel inadequate, inspired, and a little less alone.
