OUT ON A DATE – SHORT ROMANTIC  COMEDY

That’s the thing about living in this day and age – we’ve become dependent on the technology that we invented. Our lives are now on our devices and social media sites, for everyone to see. So much so, that a simple date night turns into a bit of a fiasco for Jack and Margo, who have been together five years. Thanks for social media and a not too careful boyfriend, Margo has found out that Jack has been cheating on her, with her own boss, and plans her revenge and break up with Jack at a local romantic restaurant. A play that can be played either as a drama or as a comedy depending on how it is directed.

The unwitting Jack is about to find out in this short romantic drama is that revenge is a dish best served socially: #revengeontwitter #revengeonfacebook #dateniterevengeoninstagram #cheatersrevengeontumblr!!!!
