Pages: 24 pgs
Cast: Flexible casting

The effects of drunk driving are brought home in these two very short one-acts combined under one title. In "Only Seventeen" (3 m, 4 w, 2 flexible), Corey Martin is dead from drinking and driving. At his funeral he desperately calls out to his family and friends,"I can't be dead. I'm only 17!" but no one hears him. A fellow student delivers a eulogy full of irony as Corey's friends and family think aloud about the senselessness of his death. In "The Waiting Room" (3 m, 6 w, 4 flexible), young people find themselves in a dark room, unsure of where they are or why they are there - until they begin to remember their own violent deaths. They discover that each has been the victim of a drunk driver and another child will soon be joining them unless they can do something. The brevity of both allows time for a follow-up discussions and first-person accounts, if desired.
