Performance: The Staffroom
“The staffroom by Steve Wheat
…
the staffroom is a play about the teachers in an inner suburban secondary school staffroom – their trials and tribulations throughout the school year.
Simon has just completed his Bachelor of Education. Armed with a satchel of pristine lesson plans he steps into his new life as a secondary school teacher.
As he opens the door to the staffroom he discovers a sacred refuge where teachers – freed of the restraints of instruction, discipline and, importantly, students – outpour their exasperations and frustrations in extraordinary ways. Simon soon realizes that it’s not the students he needs to worry about.
