Click here for a choice of two special alternate endings to Scene 9, which use small but significant changes to amplify the connection between bullying and teen suicide. My personal preference is Alternate Ending 2.


Click here for an alternate staging choice for Scene 1, which I discovered while visiting the rehearsal of DramaDogs' production at Santa Barbara High School (Santa Barbara, CA).

Watch a video of the events described in "Tragicomic Interlude."  It works best with the sound off, playing to absolutely chilling effect in the premiere production.  Credit as follows:  “Tragicomic Interlude video produced by the Springfield Academy of Arts and Academics, Springfield, Oregon.” The size of the file has been minimized for easy online viewing. While a higher-quality version of this video exists should you wish to use it in your production, the somewhat grainy look one gets by blowing up the smaller file is almost better for video that's supposed to be streaming through a cell phone.
