| Synopsis: | As The Teacher’s Lounge or One Child Left Behind begins, loudspeakers broadcast brief statements from George W. Bush and Barack Obama about the success – or lack thereof – of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001, which requires all public schools to administer state-wide tests on an annual basis. Bush suggests the legislation promotes accountability; Obama agrees, then criticizes Bush for failing to fund the bill sufficiently. Both men, it turns out, miss the point. - Tzvi Kahn, dctheatrescene.com | |||||
