Answer 1

Answer: Setting: High School Dance

Characters: Jackson, Tori, Liam

Act 1, Scene 1

(Enter Jackson into the room, he is dressed nicely for a High School Dance. Some black slacks and a button up shirt. He walks over to Tori and nervously smiles): Hey Tori, would you like to dance with me?

Tori: (Looks shocked, but looks over to Liam) Umm, well I am kinda teaching Liam to dance right now but after I finish with him I can dance with you if that is okay?

Liam: (Cuts in): Listen Pal, Tori said she would teach me how to dance, so back off.

Jackson: (Looks confused): Or what, Liam? You'll beat me up? I would love to see you try. You would probably fall over with those two left feet of yours.

Tori: (To Jackson): Don't talk to him like that!

Jackson: (Looks embarrassed): Sorry, I didn't mean anything by it.

Tori: (To both Jackson and Liam): You are both my friends. Why don't we all go out to the dance floor and learn together?

This shows the universal theme of friends helping and defending each other all the time as Tori stood up for her friend Liam.
