Remember: the playwright spends lots of time agonising over the
punctuation in a script. They give you the clues as to how to deliver
the lines. The information is right there on the page. Try to avoid
adding your own pauses and punctuation. Play it as is written. You
owe it to the playwright! Remember: the playwright spends lots of time agonising over the

RED BULL by Rachel O’Regan GEORGE by Keir Wilkins
Gabby drank four Red Bulls today, one after the other.
Four. And not, like, the mini cans either. The new big
cans with “35 per cent extra value”. I’ve read the
warning labels, you can’t drink more than one of
those in a day. It’s actually going to kill her. Her
heart’s going to explode. Oh, shit, I hope she’s not
going to die in here. That would really suck. I want to tell you… all of you… I hoped
maybe if I do, you’ll understand. ‘Cause I
know what people have been saying. But… I
just… I just… I feel like what you’re
about to do… we’re going down a path… you
get that we can’t go back after this? I
just… I know if I tell you about George...
Then you could decide. Please?
Can I tell you about George?
