East Bay Arts has (almost) successfully produced yet another play. This year, there was only one drama class, one disastrous cast of remarkable students. Superstitions are just that until premiere night. When the doors open, and the house lights dim; drowned out by the applause... Alex hears it.
Macbeth.
There's no time to break the curse for the actors had already taken their place on stage. There's no way to tell who said it seeing as every seat in the house was filled and silent.
Alex doesn't breathe a word of this, she just lets the show go on until the curtain shuts.

The Show Must Go On.
The stage was set, the lights were bright, and for one moment, everything felt perfect. But behind the curtain, shadows lurked-secrets, betrayal, and a sabotage that threatened to tear them apart. As the cast and crew of Hamilton prepared for the performance of their lives, they faced more than just opening night nerves. Friendships were tested, love was put on the line, and trust was shattered when they realized someone among them wanted to see them fail. Through every broken set piece and near-disaster, they stood together, proving that the bonds they'd built were stronger than the chaos surrounding them. Kyana risked everything to save Eline. Dave and Alex found love in the glow of the stage lights. Tim and Julian faced the cracks in their relationship, knowing that healing wouldn't be easy but worth it. Noor, Hasse, and the rest of the cast stood by one another, refusing to let the sabotage define them. And when the truth finally came out, when the storm had passed, they took their final bow-together. Because in the end, the show wasn't just about the performance. It was about them. Their love, their friendships, their unbreakable spirit. The show must go on. And so will they.Complete

Kiss Gone Wrong
I was pinned to my bed. He left me no option but to stay in place. I tried to control my reactions, but couldn't help but sigh as Matt nipped my earlobe. His lips travelled down my neck, sending jolts of electricity all over my skin. His hands slipped under my t-shirt up and he swirled patterns all over my stomach. My mind was going numb and I was losing control. "Bailey!" My mother called from below and Matt placed his lips over mine so that I couldn't call out for help. I tried to push him away, but he simply held my hands in his. We heard my mother climb the stairs to reach my room and Matt smirked at me. "Let's see you talk your way out of this." Matt said and ran out of the window. The door opened and my mother gasped. "Bailey!" ************************************************************* Meet Bailey Stanford.
