Artney Jackson (Celebration)

In this world premiere play by James Anthony Tyler, Artney Jackson is a devoted mentor, a respected employee at the local cable company, and an enthusiastic teller of “dad jokes.” After twenty-five years, he is finally up for promotion:  he can almost taste the possibility of becoming a manager.  Over the course of one week, Artney’s decades-old routine is shattered when his son makes plans to move out of their home, the higher-ups test his resolve to lead, and co-workers show their true colors. Will Artney Jackson overcome the turmoil and rise up?  Directed by WTF Associate Artistic Director Laura Savia, this funny and touching play examines what it really means to give at the office!
