Today I got a call from my drama teacher. She told me the moderator had just sent her a text saying the script I wrote is actually worth a excellence instead of merit. I'm rather happy about that :) so i thought I would give you a little example of what I wrote. Enjoy!
Beaten Angel
Mum: Are you sure you’re alright?
Daughter (snappy): I said I’m fine
Mum (also snappy, but not as much): You don’t seem fine to me.
Daughter: Well I am.
Mum: And what about Jack?
Daughter: What about him?
Mum: How is he?
Daughter: He’s... (pause) ...good.
Mum: That’s good.
Pause. Daughter, slightly annoyed, starts to fiddle with heart locket around her neck.
Mum: I see you still wear that necklace of yours
Daughter: Of course I do, Jack gave this to me when we first met.
Mum: Ah yes, I remember that.
Pause
Mum: So where is he?
Daughter (toneless, looking down): I don’t know.
Mum: Is he still at the pub?
Daughter: He’s given up drinking.
Mum: You keep telling yourself that...
