Synopsis
A Balancing Act - A Show about Chemical Dependency
Published by Samuel French Inc
2 Male 2 Female
Using an ensemble of four actors in a series of short scenes, Galbraith brings well over a dozen vivid and all too realistic characters to the stage
Each scene has a power and statement all its own, with action ranging from intimate to frightening
As a full evening of theatre, nothing could come as close to showing the complexity and immensity of the problem of drug abuse than A Balancing Act
Perfect for parents, teachers and students to see together, and can easily inspire topical discussion
Scenes can also be separated and performed individually
Prior to publication, this play was seen by thousands of students and received a successful run at River Arts Repertory in Woodstock, NY
Also contains questions which correspond with each scene as starters for discussion, statistics on drug abuse, and role-playing exercises
