A Different Song

One-act play set backstage at an Open Mic Night featuring live music.

Kate and Mitch are regular performers at the Charles Dickens Open Mic Night. Kate, who yearns for something more from their friendship, is devastated when she hears that Mitch is strumming his last. Chrissie's taken over the clipboard and hosting for the first time. She needs it to go well. She needs her star turn to stay.

Kate has a new song. The crowd are ready. She's up next.
