Enabler

by Kate Brennan

10 MINUTE: It's about 3AM and five professionals are on the 86th take for the Enabler commercial. Enabler is a drug that treats envy-induced depression. It's side effects include "the inability to determine right from wrong," "mania," and "spontaneous combustion." Oh yeah, and everyone is on it. A short dark comedy on the side effects of the quick fix prescription.

    This is a pitch-perfect, ten minute dark comedy. Brennan has something important to say but she also has a flair for absurdist comedy. What starts out as commentary on the marketing of pharmaceuticals quickly takes a detour and becomes a cautionary tale about the search for a quick fix. The dialogue is fun and snappy. An ensemble of funny actors would have a great time with this.
