What stories are told behind the doors of the teachers' lounge? Staffroom explores the depths of this restricted realm.
A sold-out run in the basement of the vacated Eaton's on Portage Avenue made Staffroom a top seller at the 2001 Fringe. Come see what the fuss was all about.

Staffroom

Scattered Minds Theatre—John Hirsch Mainstage

Most people at some point in their lives wonder what goes on in a teaching staff room and this play is here to answer the question! The play follows a day in a staff room as the various teachers interact. A teacher myself, the characters were spot on. Jokes were crude (some made me cringe) and captured the curmudgeon perfectly. There were tender moments that captured the do-gooder teachers to a tee.

Mostly the play showed the truth, which is that no teacher is perfect, we are all just trying our best in front of our kids and letting loose our demons with our coworkers.
