SABOTAGE

by Cori Diaz

TEN-MINUTE: In an effort to prove that the news has become desensitised, saboteurs Link and Ace decide to mess with the teleprompter during a live taping of Channel 6 News at 9. Though perhaps they expect too much out of shallow co-anchors Marjorie Commons and Casey Healy.

    Loved the humorous yet moving way this short play explores how people can be numb to tragedies in our 24 hour news cycle world. You really feel the frustration of Link and Ace.
