Quartermaine's Terms is a sad and beautiful play by Simon Gray concerning the mental decline of a teacher in an English school. It's mostly a character study of selfish people, and how they face life's tragedies, great and small, and their relationship with a colleague who is no longer up to snuff. These teachers and administrators aren't bad people, they just have, as the saying goes, their own agenda. They can't really help poor Quartermaine, whose mind wanders a lot, and who has lately been missing classes. Then again, they don't really try. Quartermaine, for his part, is an amiable sort, and likes everybody. Whatever his faults, Quartermaine is not selfish. He's a good team player in his way, but he doesn't know how to play the game.
