What they learned about teaching and learning provides critical insights not just for educators but for anyone interested in American education.

As they say, teaching is not rocket science, it’s more complicated than that.” —Pasi Sahlberg, author of Finnish Lessons 2.0: What can the world learn from educational change in Finland? “An electrifying and inspiring must read for teachers and everyone concerned with the fate of our schools.” —Lesley Bartlett, Associate Professor, Educational Policy Studies, University of Wisconsin–Madison “This book will rapidly become required reading not only among educators but also among education policy reformers. Clearly, lessons learned from these contextually rich case studies will inform our current policy debate on charting the steps in supporting the teaching profession.” —Kenneth K. Wong, Chair, education department, Brown University “This book makes an important case for defying the standardization that passes for school reform, while we learn first hand what it means to teach today in a changing social, cultural and political environment.” —Ann Lieberman, Senior Scholar at Stanford University

What really goes on behind the scenes in the mysterious world of community theatre? Dreamcast is a look at the most underpaid volunteers on the planet, those who serve the muse of live theatre in the small towns and suburbs of America. A local amateur production of "The Sound of Music" unleashes vengeful nuns, a Korean beer connoisseur, a randy director, a flamboyant choreographer, an obsessive stalker, a brat who knows all the songs from "Wicked" and a pot-smoker who lives in a public bathroom. Love/life, comedy/drama, mayhem, backstage drama and onstage triumph are all here for the price of admission to Dreamcast. This is my first novel and it is on a subject very dear to my heart. I have been doing community theatre since the age of 9. Why do I keep doing it? I don't get paid, in fact it costs me money. The glory is fleeting and the hours are awful. I wrote this book in part to answer that question.
