| Call Girls |
Call Girls is set in a call centre providing IT assistance to an unspecified company. Three of the women get on well together and ‘have a laugh’ but for the last six months their happy little group has been spoiled by the presence of Laura, an arrogant and aloof troublemaker whose predilection for short skirts and low cut tops probably has more to do with her getting the job than any particular work skills. Thankfully this is Laura’s last week and the others decide not to let her go without letting her know exactly what they think of her. Surprisingly it is Mary, normally the quietist member of the group, who really lets rip but this uncharacteristic outburst could be the biggest mistake of her life. Characters Mary is a quiet and nervous woman in her thirties or forties. She is the sort of woman who would remain silent in the company of strangers but is happy enough to contribute to the conversation when amongst friends. Jo is a straightforward sensible woman in her twenties or thirties and is Mary’s best friend. Tracy is similar to Jo but a bit more ‘no nonsense’. She is confident and self assured and regards Jo and Mary as friends. She is in her twenties or thirties. Laura is ‘in your face’ and arrogant. She dresses very seductively but without style. She is aloof from the rest of the group and really doesn’t seem to care what anyone thinks of her. She is in her twenties or thirties. Gary is disinterested in the day to day events in the office. He is aged between mid twenties and mid forties. Published by New Theatre Publications |
