The Poet Turns...
... into a playwright. That's right, folks, your beloved poet friend has decided to have a go at writing a stage play for the year 12 concert. I'm still looking for volunteers for my absurdist play that has been raved about and called things such as "insane" and "hilarious".
The play is about George W. Bush travelling through the pits of Hell with some creepy looking guy in robes. Upon reaching the chamber of Satan, he finds that Satan's three heads are each chewing one of the three greatest sinners: Hitler, Bill Gates and Gretel (that annoying bitch from Big Brother). He then goes on a time warp style journey with the dude in the cloak to witness the moments at which each of these sinners turned to the dark side and condemend themselves to Hell.
The characters: George W. Bush, Dude In Cloak (a.k.a. 'The Master'), Young Hitler, Adult Hitler, Young Bill Gates, Adult Bill Gates, Bully, Jew 1, Jew 2, Gretel, Narrator, Voice of Big Brother and some randoms to be the Bully's entourage and the Big Brother live audience.
If you're interested in any of these roles, want to have a look at the script or interested in helping with the costumes and props, you can find me on the playground, email me, sms me, etc. Thanks!

Don't forget I'm taking the bully role ... (for as long as you're the Gates junior...)

Hmmm... the response is absolutely overwhelming... come on, guys! This your chance to take part in a play that explains Hitler's one testicle. Show some interest dammit!
And it looks like I will be playing both the adult and young Gates since nobody is interested in teh role. Under that same logic, I'm playing the other 8 or so characters too.

I think David must play adult Hitler.
I'm interested in seeing the script.

Hey there,
Looking at all of the acts submitted, we've attempted to merge some of them. There's a couple of dance/ raps that are being mixed, but we also need to do something with the plays. There are three at the moment, but we need to cut that down. Would you be interested in merging your ideas with one of or both of the playwrights? Anyway if there's enough room for all three plays, we won't need to merge them.

Damn right! Which is why the other two sinners have the privilege of keeping their heads outside of satan's mouth and she doesn't.

I can't believe you turned your extension 1 story into a play -__-; Look forward to seeing the head chewing scene being acted out. xD

How can they not understand? I've lowered the standard to a stage where the whole thing is bordering on slapstick. I could have just as easily written the whole thing in lyrical verse and archaic english.

I've read the script and found it very amusing. It satisfied the cynic in me. Peter also sends his approval. Thanks for passing it on and Danny will get "The Notebook" tomorrow.
