Not an After-School Special
Are you overdosed on teen problems, dramas about eating disorders, drunk-driving, suicide, etc.? Then this darkly humorous one-act is the antidote. Violet is in the nurse's office after having fainted that morning. One by one her friends visit her and one by one she takes advantage of them by confessing to all the ills teens are supposed to have. With a story of illiteracy, she gets the bright but mousy Moxie to do her homework. A tale of bulimia gets tomboyish Caryn to give up her car keys. A fable of drunk driving gets the uptight Kelly to bring Violet her boyfriend. And you won't believe what Violet says to get super-hot Bryce to loosen up! When the truth comes out and all the stories collide, will Violet repent? One thing's for certain: this is "Not an After-School Special."
