“The Next Morning”
(an improvised scene.)

Featured Impediment: a “hang over” - performed by Shannon.

Synopsis:
Shannon and I live together and have been dating for a year. Shannon has been out all night partying and drinking w/ friends. Alisha (one of her close friends) was drunk and told Shannon that she slept w/ me when Shannon and I first started going out. Alisha thought Shannon knew. She didn’t. It is now the next morning and Shannon is returning home. What she doesn’t know is that my mother passed away last night in the hospital after a long battle w/ cancer. The scene will open up with me on stage packing my suitcase getting ready for a later flight to meet my family.
