Francis P. Jones School of Performing Arts

Marissia: "I'm ready!"

Jake- "Okay. James, get up there."

James- I get on the stage and look at the script. "Page fifteen right?"

Jake- "Yeah."

James- "Okay." I look at Marissia. "So how do you like the party? Pretty great right?"

Marissia: I grinned and jumped in place, pumping my fist. "Yeah, it's awesome!" I giggled. "Dance with me!"

James- I laugh, "Thanks but I'm good. I don't dance."

Marissia: I stopped dancing and tugged on his arm. "Come on! Live a little and dance!"

James- "Okay. Okay!" I laugh. "I'll dance with you."

Marissia: I grinned. "Good!" In the script, it said to change to a slow dancing song then, and I was supposed to try to get away. "Um...hey, be right back. Bathroom break."

James- I check the script. "Uh. but what about that dance that you just talked me into?"

Marissia: "No! Um...urgent pee break! Sorry!"

(and end here?)

(Yeah.)

Jake- "Not the best scene choice on James' part but you did great. I just need to talk to these people here and I'll let you know."

Marissia: I smiled at James. "See you later."

Fiona: I stood up. "Our turn now?"

James- "Yeah. Later." I smile back at her.

Jake- "Yes our turn now."

Alyssa- "So we just wait outside?"

Jake- "Yeah. We'll call you back in when we're done."

Marissia: I walked outside to wait.

Dakota: I stood up. "Okay, what are we going to decide?"

Jake- "We decide who gets the part. They were both great so I don't care."

James- "I choose Marissia!"

Fiona: I rolled my eyes. "You think she's hotter. Wow. No, Alyssa is the way to go."

Dakota: "You're just saying that because you don't like Alyssa. Marissia did way better."

Jake- "James. Don't choose based on how much you like them. Choose based on their audition."

Fiona: "Who do you pick?"

James- "Well then I don't know. Alyssa's known you forever that's the only reason why she messed up." I look at the two girls. "But Marissia was really good too." I stop and think for a minute. "I decide on Marissia."

Jake- "Okay. Well I can put Alyssa on costumes unless we need her as an understudy."

Fiona: I groaned. "Ughh. I see enough of Marissia."

Dakota: "You probably won't see each other much. And if you do, let me handle her."

Jake- "Okay so it's decided then? I can go tell the girls?"

Fiona: I sighed. "Fine, I guess."

Jake- "Okay be right back." I go out to the hallway and tell the girls. I come back in when I'm done.

Alyssa- "Okay I'll see you at rehersal tomorrow. I'll be the one getting all the outfits together."

Marissia: I grinned. "I got the part? Oh my goodness! Thanks so much!"

Jake- "No problem."

Marissia: "When's rehearsal?"
