ABOUT THE SHOW

Immortalized by Sidney Poitier's captivating performance in the 1967 cinematic masterpiece – To Sir With Love, is an autobiographical story that is every bit as relevant then, as it is today. Rick Braithwaite is more than just a Cambridge-educated engineer and a former RAF fighter pilot; he's a man battling societal prejudices at every turn. Refusing to bow to adversity, he engages his students not as troublesome youths but as emerging adults who must soon navigate a world where they'll stand or fall on their own merits. Through a balance of grit and grace, he aims to prepare them for more than just exams; he prepares them for life.

As well as the hit title song made famous by Lulu , additional music has been written by John Farrar (Xanadu, Grease) and Kara DioGuardi (American Idol).
