Under The Influence
Author(s):
Ron Parker
A living mobile serves as the centerpiece in this profound drama, illustrating the imbalancing effects of drug and alcohol abuse, not on the abusers, but on the people in their lives. Kris hopes being the "perfect daughter" will compensate for her mother's drinking. Brian is close to his athlete brother -- until his brother is introduced to steroids. Jackie struggles to understand her mother's drug addiction -- an addiction that left Jackie mentally retarded. Sheri would do anything for Russ... who would do anything for cocaine. With the unsteady mobile onstage as a visual reminder, these and other moving stories vividly portray how alcohol and drugs throw so many lives out of balance. If you wish, a selection of stories may be used to shorten the play and have it speak more directly to your audience.
