The Perils of Modern Education is a hilarious romp through the chaos of school life - standardized theatre tests, caffeine withdrawal, even Shakespeare stressing over his college essay! Gender-flexible, easy to stage, and full of laughs.
Lea Marshall
Lea Marshall has been a preschool drama teacher, an elementary school drama teacher, a middle school theatre teacher, and now is a high school Theatre Teacher in Tallahassee, FL. She studied Elementary and Early Childhood Education at Furman University a really long time ago. Her life was changed when she spent a semester in London and Stratford, UK studying Shakespeare.
Fun fact: While taking a Theatre 1 class at Furman, she failed miserably in her first acting scene from Tartuffe. She has forgiven Molière since it was totally her fault that she didn’t know her lines well. The fault was not in the stars, it was in herself.
