New York City
Center Theatre Group presents Alfred Uhry’s Without Walls. At an open classroom education center in Manhattan, Morocco Hemphill teaches high school drama. He’s inspirational. And popular with the kids. When students Lexy and Anton get the leads in the school’s production of The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, life starts to imitate art as their relationship with Morocco mirrors the play. Like Miss Brodie, Morocco is an unorthodox instructor who stands up against conventionality. And like in The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, the special bond formed between students and teacher takes a treacherous turn.
