The Last Class

Former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich might be famous for his public service, best-selling books, and viral social media posts, but he always considered teaching his true calling. A love letter to education, THE LAST CLASS captures a master educator wrestling with the dual realities of his own aging and his students inheriting a world out of balance. Reich confronts the impending finality with unflinching candor, humor, introspection, and a rawness of emotion he has never shared publicly before.

One thousand students fill the biggest lecture hall on campus—the last class to receive Reich’s wisdom and exhortations not to accept that society has to stay the way it is. His final assignment: Who will be the teachers of tomorrow?

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT – Because of popular demand, additional shows of THE LAST CLASS will be added the week of Sept 5-11. Specific showtimes will be determined early next week.
