From a professional student to a misguided sales executive, from a young mother about to send her child into the formal education system, to the teacher from hell, Put Up Your Hand presents seven interconnected monologues and one scene that interrupt and overlap one another into a cohesive evening of theatre. The script will resonate for anyone who ever sat in a classroom and pondered, "what's school for?"
