HSC Major Work Piece - DRAMA
Full script.
A girl named Adellyn Augustin in the 19th century faces family and societal pressure to conform to the 'Victorian Woman' ideology.
Adellyn has other plans.
Upon receiving professional praise for her writing skills by her city's newspaper, a whole world of opportunities open up for her. The ability to leave her family who continually belittle her and a chance to provide for herself and most importantly, the chance to be owned by no one.
The only dilemma.
Adellyn did not publish under her name.
From Adellyn's skill came the birth of her pseudonym,
Allister Augustin.
As the play unfolds, watch as Adellyn is pulled in both directions about the course of her life and her final decision...
Maybe Allister Augustin is here to stay, creatively and physically?

Playing The Game
Not every blonde is stupid. In the South if you're a beautiful, blonde, blue-eyed girl high expectations are made. Either you're not extremely smart, so you find yourself a suitable husband to take care of you. Or you are smart and you just pretend to be dumb so you find yourself a suitable husband to take care of you. All her life Avery Skinner has been told what to do and how to do it- by everyone. By her mother, the girls she calls friends, the guys in school, teachers, family, even Mark the mailman. Needless to say, she's sick of it. Its time Avery took control of her life or at least get a firm grip on the sucker. She's loved football ever since she was a little girl. Yet she could never play because ladies aren't supposed to do such barbaric things. Especially in the South- unless its a rodeo and you're wearing those ridiculously tight outfits that show you're navel or showing you can hold your liquor. Avery has longed to be on the field, throwing the ball instead of cheering on the team her dad coaches that can't seem to win. Then her best friend Austin forces Avery to and for sometime everyone is fooled. But the truth can only be hidden for so long. The moment the townsfolk of Stonehenge, Alabama learned it was a girl under that helmet, was the moment true colors showed. It hasn't been easy and it won't get any better but Avery is here to play. * Avery is going to face REAL life problems, and not nice people. She's going to deal with sexual harassment, mean words, rude people, pregnancy, injuries, steroids, etc.. In this story I want to exemplify how sexist and cruel humans can be. There will be hard moments, but I want to put it out there because it IS a serious problem. Harsh language and such will be present. You have been warned, don't read it then complain.

Miss Cleopatra (A Drew Chadwick/Emblem3 Fan Fic)
"I'm Wesley." "And I'm Drew." He nodded his head to the class. "Well boys, welcome to Huntington, but more importantly, welcome to World History I. The pair of you can take a seat in the back next to Annabeth." Oh shit. That's me. Meet Annabeth Kade. She's a Huntington Beach native savoring the little things that life has to offer. She expected her Junior year to be an average one- that is until the most popular guy in school decided to invite her to his Halloween party. But instead of attempting to blend, Annabeth decides to make a statement. She attends the party as no other than Cleopatra, the powerful Egyptian Pharaoh. When Drew arrives on the scene, Annabeth immediately catches his attention. What is it about Cleopatra that he finds so captivating? Is it the dark black wig? What about her piercing blue eyes? Or maybe it's the way she can command attention with just a simple look. The same question running through his head is one that everyone else would like to know the answer to: Who is Cleopatra and where has she been hiding? Annabeth doesn't like being the center of attention, which is why Cleopatra is the perfect alter ego. Every once in a while, she can slip on the black wig and become someone else. But being Cleopatra doesn't give her an escape for long, because Drew is on the case, determined to find out who she really is. Hey guys :) Haha I kind of suck at descriptions, but please check out my story! It'll be interesting I promise.Complete
