Rachel Feeny-Williams

I am 35 years old and live in Exeter, Devon UK. My first experience of writing a play was in my final year of University in 2008. I initially produced a play at university and then, following my graduation I returned to Devon and continued to write. I wrote and sold plays to multiple companies across Devon until Covid hit.

In the absence of live performance, I decided to dedicate myself to my writing. I created 'The Literary and Discourse Society' who continue to meet every Sunday to this day to read the works written by its members.

In addition, I have completed six 'play-a-day' writing challenges. This has taken my total works to 184 plays! I have had works produced all around the country as well as internationally. In April 2022 one of my pieces won "Best Original Script" at a one...

28 Plays Later - Day 16 - Write a play adhering to these rules:
1. Your play should have 6 characters. Two of these characters should be female identifying, two should be non-gender-conforming and two should be male identifying.
2. The play will consist of 2 acts - each act should have a minimum of 3 scenes - each scene should have a minimum of 33 lines.
3. Act I is set in a hospital (whatever hospital you want it to be) and Act II is set in a park (whatever park you want it to be). Two characters only appear in act I and two characters only appear in act II - the other two characters appear in both acts.
4. At least one character sings a power ballad at some point. The other characters that are on stage do not pay attention. In fact, it’s quite a tragic moment.
5. There is reference to a clown, a brown crown, a town gown and an upside down frown. Each in a different scene.
6. You may use up to 5 pauses in the play. One of those pauses must last exactly 27 seconds, and there must be a good reason for that.
7. One character thinks they’re brave (they’re not); one character has just come back from a rave; one lives in a cave; one is called Dave; one is a slave (consensual) and one obsessively shaves.
8. Every line of dialogue must have one of the following: either 8 words, 22 words, 32 words, 59 words, 98 words or 111 words (you can punctuate as you like).
9. No verb can be repeated in the dialogue, and there should be one monologue in the play (98 or 111 words) that doesn't contain any verbs.
10. Two characters are married; two are divorced and two are dating - the married couple does not appear in the same act.

Alice has always been taught to do the right thing, that teaching is shortly to be tested when she finds out about Dave.
