Class 24 : Script for Final Performance

SCRIPT
BY: THE CAMPAIGN TEAM OF CLASS 24


[enter the intro members]

Intro 1: Good evening, everyone. We are class 24 and today we will be presenting our Global Awareness campaign topic, Connected but Alone.These days in the modern world, technology has developed and more new age people are becoming dependent on either their smartphones, and social media.

Intro 2: However, what we’re going to do is pinpoint one of the major problems and try to show you why we need to stop ourselves from relying on social media to form connections. A lot of people have social media accounts such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and more. Those people become so engrossed with the account that they begin to slip away from reality. This can lead to isolation, being cyber bullied, or left dependent on social media. We want to raise awareness and show you that people should stop mistaking their online friends as their real friends and start looking for their real friends in reality. Here’s an example of what we mean.

School kid 2: Yeah, man who hasn’t? It’s been all over the internet.

School kid 3: So has the news of BTS’ new album!!

School kid 1: Remind me why we’re hanging out with this chick?

School kid 2: Dunno, man it was your choice.

[enter in Facebook addict 1 and 2]

School kid 3: Aren’t they the new girls that stay on their phones 24/7?

School kid 2: Oh, they’re pretty hot. Better than you for sure.

School kid 1: Wanna ask them to hang?

[approach FB addict 1 and 2]

School kid 3: What’s up?

Facebook addict 1: I’m updating my status, wait lemme take a pic. Say cheese!

[takes picture of the three kids and they are immediately freaked out]

School kid 2: Well, we were going to ask if you wanted to hang out with us? Maybe go out for a movie?

Facebook addict 2: Depends, how many followers do you have?

School kid 1: What the heck is she talking about?

School kid 3: You mean Facebook?

[FB addict 1 and 2 nods]

School kid 1: Why do you care about that?

Facebook addict 1: [dramatic gasp] Who doesn’t? I have over 2 thousand.

[all school kids stare at her weirdly and slowly walk away from her]

School kid 1: Dude, she’s so weird.

School kid 2: Yeah, now I know why they barely got any friends. They’ve got issues.

[next day, everyone is whispering and talking about facebook addict 1 while she walks down the hallway with her phone]

School kid 3: You know, she’s got over 2 thousand followers but 0 in real life. Pathetic.

School kid 1: She’s going to hit the pavement one day, super hard yo.

[enter pokemon go addict/facebook addict 3 and bump into School kid 1]

School kid 1: Hey man, watch where you’re going. Don’t you have eyes?

Pokemon Go addict: [places pointer finger on School kid addict 1’s mouth] SHHH. I just caught a Squirtle and I gotta update my facebook status.

[Pokemon Go addict walks away]

School kid 1: Humans..

[scene ends and conclusion speakers walk up]

Conclusion 1: As you can see in our play, social media dependency can lead to serious problems. Please remember, friends on social media such as Facebook or Instagram may not be the “best” friends you can get. Always try to meet real friends, face to face, and communicate with them.

Conclusion 2: In our Global Awareness project, the PR team made challenges that can test people not to use phones during either dinner time or a certain period of time.

Conclusion 3: The Media team made a video, a Facebook page, and an Instagram page as well. Our Art and Design team created lovely and powerful posters that can inspire you to start putting down your phone and take a look around.

Conclusion 2: We hope that our presentation taught you guys how we shouldn’t rely on social media all the time and that we should focus on reality and our real selves. Just as our PR team created a challenge to not use your phones and social media, we challenge you to use less time on your phones and social media and more time on your real life.Thank you for listening and let that phone go!
