Art & Class, the latest production in Plan-B Theatre’s entirely virtual season, is based on the kind of news story that makes a lot of us shake our heads and scream “not
all Utahns!” In 2017, an elementary school teacher in Hyrum shared artwork with his sixth grade class that contained nudity. (You know, like pretty much any art museum on Earth.) The teacher was accused of being a child pornographer, the police were called, and he was fired faster than you can declare porn a public health crisis.
