Here is the five minute play i composed for my production class;
Scene One
Doctor's office with desk and chairs.
Open up with Doctor sitting on desk, the doctor then moves towards Miss Kaye who is sitting on a chair. Miss Kaye is slouching and her two STD's are personified by two male players. They both hover over her.
Doc:
So i have a few concerns regarding your pregnancy and over all health Miss Kaye that i think you must consider given your present situation as a person with a ''high risk'' life style.
Miss K:
I have decided to have an abortion. I am too young and there's so much I want to do, a kid would just hold me back.
Doc:
Be that as it may, you must understand that you need to start looking after yourself better and perhaps consider a method of birth control and using protection during intercourse.
Miss K:
Sorry if I seem irresponsible to you but I don't like the idea of taking ''the pill'' everyday and I am usually too drunk to remember to use a condom.
Doc:
Yes, however, you have two sexually transmitted diseases, one of which is permanent. The Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) the player who is HPV looks at Miss Kaye, they both exchange glares but HPV is smiling. is not something you should put others at risk with. And syphilis the player who is Syphilis waves at Miss Kaye is not pleasant either, if left unnoticed it can cause a lot of damage.
The two personified STD's are now moving around Miss Kaye in a circle.
We hear a beep and the secretary voice.
Michael:
Doctor your son is on line one, he says it is urgent.
Doc:
Thank you, Michael. Please excuse me for a moment Miss Kaye...hello, hi what? Are you ok? Are you sure? Ok...ok I will be there as soon as I can. Sorry Miss Kaye but our discussion will have to continue tomorrow - are you available?
Miss Kaye:
Ya sure.
Doc:
Let the receptionist know when you can come back tomorrow and we can schedule for further tests and discussion.
Miss Kaye:
Ok.
Shuts door
We hear a beep.
Doc:
Michael, please cancel the rest of my appointments for today.
Michael:
Yes Doctor.
End scene
Use lighting to hide players and appear other players.
Scene Two
The two personified STD's are now standing facing one another. Both seem very anxious.
Syphilis:
I do love a sluttish college girl don't you?
HPV:
Certainly, but I do believe I was here first.
Syphilis:
Pardon me, but I do think there is enough to go around...
HPV:
I agree, however, I only share when it comes to multiplying and mutating and no offense but nobody enjoys the mess when it comes to the likes of you, rather, rule of thumb generally you bring the onset of vaccines and medications
Syphilis:
Listen here you pompous wet -behind-the-ears peice of shit i will have you know...
They fight
Lights fade out, the players disappear and we hear a car and see the Doctor driving. She is rummaging through her bag looks up and sees Miss Kaye crossing the street. Brakes screech and we hear a thud. Miss Kaye has been hit.
End scene.
