“Up The Down Staircase” at Radburn Players

“Up the Down Staircase” is a hilarious and heartwarming tale following the efforts of Sylvia Barrett, an idealistic young woman in her first year teaching inner-city high school students. Soon Sylvia finds herself the most involved person in the school - involved in the start of a romance and in a near war with a discipline-over-everything administrator but most of all, involved in the unexpected, sometimes heartbreaking problems of her students.
