About me:
This is the MySpace page for a new one-act play about bullying, Thank You for Flushing My Head in the Toilet and other rarely used expressions. Written by Los Angeles-based writer Jonathan Dorf, the play premiered at the Springfield Academy of Arts and Academics in November 2006 (directed by Michael Fisher), and in less than a month had already had additional productions at schools in Michigan, Tennessee and Texas. Since then, it's gone on to productions throughout the United States and Canada (more than 35 already, with more scheduled).
About the Play
Thank You for Flushing... is what’s often called a dramedy, in that it uses a strong dose of comedy to tackle an ultimately serious subject. It requires an ensemble of 10-12 actors minimum, with no maximum. Most roles are gender flexible, though there should be at least 3 male and 6 female actors. Running time is 30-35 minutes. All settings are meant to be suggested, so that the play can be done in almost any kind of venue.
Synopsis
Achilles and Helen get picked on at school--a lot. Achilles has a regular date with a bully who flushes his head in the toilet, and Helen has become so afraid of the girls who ridicule her that she invents reasons to be late. So when cool girl Glinda, their "bully buddy," appears and offers them a way out, they jump at the chance. But when they realize Glinda's solution is to turn them into bullies, they both resist--and she sends them back to a school that is even worse than the one they left. Their only means of escape is to try it Glinda's way. But does saving themselves mean becoming the very people who have tormented them?
To learn more about the play, which is ideal for school and youth group production and is published by Playscripts, Inc., visit www.thankyouforflushing.com.
