Whit Forsyth has just been elected the first Black chairman of the State Schoolboard Committee, about to vote on critical measures on public education. But as he readies for his vote, several groups go to extreme measures to influence his decisions. A zany exploration of ideology and the American education system.
Award-winning storyteller, playwright, poet, arts champion, and Artistic Director of Seattle Children’s Theatre, Idris Goodwin, brings his offbeat comedy for adults - featuring rap, audience interaction, and incisive exploration of the pressures educators face from all sides - to The Lab for its world premiere production!
