Erica's part

Next day I was in the hallways and was approached by Bobby, he told me to walk with him as he marched fast down the halls

"Alright, Erica" Bobby handed me a stack of paper as we walked "You have no lines you're an extra" he was sassier than I'd like. "...but Mrs. Chariot pitys you and wants you to come out of your shell or something, so you get to be the extra who has the scream at the end of the play"

"The scream?"

"Yes, it's all in the script I gave you, I won't go in details but close to the end of the play you'll be on a wooden stock for a while 'watching the fight happen' before you scream of te top of your lungs when one of the characters dies" he said

"Wooden stock? like those medieval ones?"

"Exactly, Lisa is running the props and costumes department and will have one done by rehearsal"

"Lisa? Props and costumes? Why?" I inquired, confused

"beats me, we offered her Juliet, but she decline and demanded she ran props and costumes instead". We were walking fast like he had somewhere to be. "Okay, so read the whole script, and practice your scream, it's literally your only moment to shine. don't. fuck. it. up."

No pressure.

he walked off before I could thank him.

During my free period I read the scrypt and my part was mostly just being there in the background with some other extras. Apparently they moved the fight scene to the end of the play and by that scene I'd be locked in a wooden stock, with my arms ad head in the wholes, while the fight happened. Once this Mercutio guy dies I'm suppose to scream in horror. He then says a few things and the they draw the curtains. that's the last scene I'm in.

I still don't understand why Lisa got a backstage job, why not one of the main parts, I know she could act and she loved the attention.
