The Breakup!

I'm ecstatic because I've completed my second piece. The first was a monologue and this is a script with two characters. I was encouraged to keep writing by a couple of my friends and I did. Of course, its still in draft mode but the MOST exciting part for me is that its ready for a reading. I've already got one person who's volunteered to read (thanks A!) .....this was my goal in 2010, to complete a piece so that it would be ready for a reading. I finished the monologue but I specifically had in mind a script with 2 characters.

The Breakup is about just that....a breakup. But I wanted to show the emotional and manipulative side of some breakups between women. I commonly hear straight people say "it must be easier for women." They have no idea! Women are driven by emotions therefore making our relationships overload on emotions. Now think about that desperate emotion when you're loosing someone....times 10. That's what I wanted to bring to the stage. Show that reality.
