My mind was blown the other day by my close friend and class president.
We had Drama Club last year, for the first time in a long time. Unfortunately, the teacher who supervised and directed the play quit when the year ended (and I don't blame him for doing so). Now, they can't find someone to take his place, which really bummed me out, because I love Drama Club.
I was just beginning to flesh out the idea that I had floating around in my head about creating a stage play from the music in The Black Parade. I had only just started experimenting with the idea when I photographed my character list (a WIP..) with my cell and uploaded it to Facebook. Not fifteen minutes later do I receive a text message from the friend mentioned above saying that she had a great idea.
Me: What is it?
Her: Well. You know how we don't have Drama Club anymore?
Me: Yeah..
Her: What if we did your play?
Me: (took me a second to register) That's a great idea!
Her: We can talk to Mrs. Reid and since we can direct, someone just has to be in the room with us.
Me: Yay! Now I have to write it. ;)
..or something along those lines. Needless to say, I was breathlessly excited. I had the plot written in a notebook, so I lent it to her to read over the weekend to get the idea. I already finished Act I: Scene 1 tonight. I want to finish Scene 2 tonight as well. Then, after we're done cleaning the house tomorrow, I'll get rolling with Scene 3 and 4.
Frankie,
