Cotuit Center for the Arts and Eventide Theatre Company proudly present a live screening of the complete Teacher of the Year series by playwright Jim Dalglish

Cotuit Center for the Arts and Eventide Theatre Company are proud to present the live, in-person premiere of the complete Teacher of the Year series. Teacher of the Year is a daring, timely new original play by Jim Dalglish, starring Miranda Jonté. The show is currently being presented in 12 episodes, with two episodes airing each Friday night from May 28 through July 2.

On July 2, to celebrate the release of the full series, we're screening all 12 episodes of "Teacher of the Year" as one movie-length event! Come and enjoy this thought-provoking piece of original film/theater on the big screen in our Main Theater, and enjoy a celebratory reception in the Gallery afterwards. Already bought your ticket for the series? Anyone who has already purchased the online ticket can attend for FREE if they wish (one person admitted per livestream ticket purchased). The full-length version of the play will be available to rent after July 2 at ArtsOnTheCape.org.

Synopsis for Teacher of the Year:

It’s the Spring of 2020 and the Minnehaha Montessori School of South Minneapolis has gone totally online. Annie – a finalist for Minnesota Teacher of the Year – should have no problem getting her 6th graders to the end of the school year.

Easy. Right?

Teacher of the Year tells the story of a woman, a family, a school, a community, a pandemic, and a murder in the city of Minneapolis during the tumultuous Spring of 2020.
