I ’ M SURE
SETTINGS
Ms . Taylor ’ s Office in a small , quirky room filled with an eclectic mix of college merchandise . There is a wooden desk in the middle of it all , with a whimsical chair on either side .
The Ward family attic . A dimly lit room , very messy and chaotic . The siblings have carved out a small area with a blanket spread out for them to sit on , a leather duffel bag of food , and an old radio .
CHARACTERS
Alyssa – A highly intelligent 17-year-old girl in the process of finding her passions . She is slightly sarcastic , but everything has an undertone of tiredness . All she wants is to know what her future holds . Ms . Taylor – A highly qualified college admissions counselor who does her best to help her students choose paths that they are not only passionate about , but that will impact the world for the better . She possesses possibly magical powers , though this is never questioned or discussed , merely accepted . Rebekah Ward – A 17-year-old ( imaginary ?) girl in the future . She doesn ’ t think about what she says before she says it , which can lead to unnecessary conflict , but her heart is in a good place . She is , in some respects , the counterpart of Alyssa . Will Ward – A 15-year-old ( imaginary ?) boy in the future . He is level-headed and seems both younger and older than he really is .
