A Play in a Book For theatre lovers, a real life drama, and a drama from real life. Tracy, a pupil with cystic fibrosis, tells the story of her school as it faces the bulldozer. Why does Margaret Williamson, its head teacher, attempt to take her own life? Can her love with John Errington, the English teacher, survive? Act 2 Scene 5 The Gift of Love. For music lovers, a music lesson. How important is music in education, especially for children with special needs? And it has something to say in the age-old debate between people of faith and the people like Richard Dawkins. For students of politics, a case study in political folly,systemic dysfunction and ineptitude and food for serious thought; as the Prologue closes: "See the whole as one picture - but see it as a fragment of a very large canvas." For lawyers, academia and educationalists, an abattoir for a herd of sacred cows and a challenge they should not ignore. For bureaucrats, a cautionary tale with some lessons they may want to learn. For the mediaa journey of exploration and discovery. If you with the appetite for it, the Deathofanightingale Website is just Tapas compared with the Seven Course Table d'hôte meal that is this 262 page book, with Alice in Blunderland - The Mad Hattter's Committee Meeting a tasty little bouche! It tells a human story with a challenging interplay of fact, fiction, satire and commentary. It brings to life dry-as-dust issues important in education and, maybe, even more important beyond it. Which is the wiser mantra in education – Equality or Equity? How far does declaring a “Right” provide the protection of “a Right”? Is this generation properly mindful of the legacy it is bequeathing? Reviews of the play at the New End Theatre, London 2009 & 211 “Compelling, controversial and confrontational” Len Parkin The Teacher “A searing tale of a fight to save SEN school which drove head teacher to brink of suicide” Kerra Maddern, Times Educational Supplement A wonderful night, very moving — I learned about another world, which can be as cruel & cynical & as warm-hearted & surprising as my own. Don't miss it, esp. if you're a human being. Miriam Margolyes A refreshingly uncompromising and meaty piece ... I loved the emphasis on music and its power to heal and educate.Susan Elkin,The Stage (2009) And representing those who wanted to kill the play - the best evidence that the play hit the target Alan Share's badly written, didactic play - full of platitudes such as “Everyone can achieve something in life with a helping hand” - is more preachy than pertinent. It is a kind of anti-theatre, virtually untouched by any attempt at direction.PCS Union Editor, Jonathan Lovett, The Stage (2011) Brian Attwood, Editor, The Stage, describes his own reviewer on seeing some of his Tweets as "Yep, he's worse than Pol Pot." LET TRACY HAVE THE LAST WORD HERE: Remember the little white dandelion heads blowing away in the wind.... Y'see I'm not just going to blow away in the wind.
