2023 Edinburgh Fringe
Bad Teacher
Bad Teacher is back after selling out Edinburgh Fringe 2022 and VAULT Festival 2023! The Queens of Cups draw upon their years teaching in this outrageous riotously funny comedy about a 20-something teacher. 'A hilarious reminder that teachers are entirely human' ***** (TheatreScotland.com). This perfectly executed one-woman show, created by real teachers, schools audiences on the outrageous expectations that our current educational system sets for students and teachers alike. Evie takes audiences with her as she battles through the school day, culminating in parents' evening. This laugh-out-loud script is unabashedly funny, unflinchingly realistic, and unashamedly female.
