“P.S. 69. - A Teacher Grows in Brooklyn”

Written and performed by Susan Jeremy

 January 22 - 26, 2003

A sensation from the 2002 Piccolo Spoleto Festival, this play is a hilarious tale of a young substitute teacher besieged daily with challenging circumstances in and out of a Brooklyn elementary school.  A one-teacher showcase with a classroom full of challenges and a life lived on the edge is based on Susan Jeremy’s real life experiences. Her 22 separate characters provide an insider’s viewpoint into the turbulent inner city schools, the good, the bad and the humorous.  Clever, amusing and “right on target,” this is a must see not just for school teachers but for any body who has ever dealt with children and has lived to laugh about it. This play contains adult material and language, and is for mature audiences.
