Tacky Teacher

Tacky Teacher

Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2026

No skills. No mindset. No preparation. Out of the rawest grief grows a desperate hunger: the need to leave a mark, to prove something resembling manhood. He was never meant to teach anyone. He was only expected to survive nonetheless. Tacky Teacher is the origin story that was never meant to originate. Bouncer by night, teacher by day, he walks the twilight zone between human darkness and the fragile glow of the common good. Always a problem, never just a solution – but always holding the torch. Lighting the way. Even as he burns his hands.
