Do You Party?

by Megan Rivkin

College freshman Abby thinks she’s going out to eat with a friend from class and her sister. This is exciting for Abby, who is desperate for a community. It quickly becomes clear that she may only be there as a potential Mary Kay recruit. How much is belonging really worth?

    Sharp, uncomfortable, and darkly funny, Do You Party? captures the desperation to belong with painful accuracy. Rivkin’s overlapping, hyper-real dialogue makes Abby’s slow realization both cringe-inducing and deeply compelling.

    Wow, this play terrorized me in a good way - super-uncomfortable stuff going on! These characters are intense, and I really felt for Abby. And the ending is killer. Great work!

    Loved the dialogue in this play. Really reminded me of women in my life that sold Mary Kay. You can't help but connect with Abby. An excellent short play about longing for friendship and the ugly side of MLMs.
