A Human Write by Amelia Armande
Production by Ury Players won the 2018 Aberdeen SCDA district youth competition and the Kincardine district trophy. |
| Roles | Minimum Male roles = 0. Minimum Female roles = 1. Minimum total with doubling = 5. Minimum total without doubling = 11. Chorus. The writer is written male, though need not be. His thoughts - the chorus - are genderless. |
| Run Time | Around 25 minutes. [Estimated!] |
| Music | None. |
| Style | A fascinating one act drama that uses mime and rhyme to take us into the mind of a struggling writer. Contains one mild swearword. |
| Synopsis | The writer is grappling not only with his writing but also with his personal life as he desperately attempts to strike up a relationship with Janis, a beautiful girl he sees on a bus.
Well paced and gathering speed, the play uses the chorus to reveal the writer's thoughts - sometimes cogent, sometimes chaotic - come to life as the surreal become real. |
