Breakdown

THE EXHIBITIONIST

SYNOPSIS: Justin is coming undone. The McMillon Museum of Art’s oldest and most charming intern is
guiding patrons to an exhibit of a recently discovered painting by Vincent Van Gogh. But little do they
know, just one floor below, Justin’s own artwork is being scrutinized in a big competition that could
thrust him into the career of his dreams. THE EXHIBITIONIST is a love letter to artists and explores the
lengths we will go to define our worth and success. It’s funny, fast, and theatrical—but beneath that is a
deeply human ache: the terror of being invisible and the courage it takes to keep believing your voice
matters. This award-winning, 65-minute tour-de-force of comedy and drama was originally performed by
2025 Emmy Award winner Jeff Hiller, who is now serving as Executive Producer.

NOTE FROM CASTING: THE ROLE OF JUSTIN HAS BEEN CAST. We are currently seeking an offstage
