"Refuse to live life by the book."
The English Teacher
Small-town Pennsylvania schoolteacher Linda Sinclair balances her staid home life with an incredible passion for her subject.

Seeing in his script the inspiration that she has always longed to instill in her students, this dyed-in-the-wool romantic enlists the help of long-suffering drama teacher Carl to mount the work as the high school’s next and riskiest production.
