This last winter swept teachers up in political turmoil, and they were subjected to an unprecedented level of attacks. Now, with a recall battle looming, teachers are likely to be caught in the crosshairs again.
Mercury Players Theatre asked teachers to write plays out of their experience of teaching in Wisconsin in 2011. Some of the plays depict life in the classroom, some talk about what it means to them to be a teacher, and many express how the trauma of this year affected them.
Playwrights include elementary, middle school and high school teachers, MATC instructors, TAs, substitute and special ed teachers. Listen to the stories they have to tell. The director, Monty Marsh-McGlone, is a preschool teacher currently studying education at the UW-Madison.
The playwrights: Vince Busenbark * Jeff Casey * Mary Fairweather Dexter * Philip Heckman * Holly Walter Kerby * Kelly Kotewa-Veldey * Jane Leahy * Paul Milisch * Marty Mulhern * Jonathan Pollack * Rachel Schramm * Gail Sterkel * Elena Tabachnick.
