Project Overview
This is a dramatic reading of the play by Joshua Bamford, about a teen in the 70's coming out to his friends and family with troubling results. I do hope for some patience, because I can get busy. I will post this on youtube after it is done, the style will be much like a podcast or radio show, with background vocals, noises, music, etc. I hope you enjoy!

Carter23
He is a gay teen in the 70's whom, after coming out to his parents, experiences, verbal, mental, and physical abuse. I picture him with a mid-vocal to midhigh-vocal range, but if you feel you can portray this outcasted gay teen, then go for it. You can read one of the lines, or all of them. whichever you prefer
My name is Todd Daley. Have you ever felt unloved, unwanted, because of something you try to change, over and over, but you can’t? To change the impossible? Something that was a part of you on a cellular level, that you could not change, because it is who you are. My life is a cautionary tale that you are about to watch unfold.
Think Todd think... She’s going to tell everyone!....You need to tell them yourself… You need to get this off your chest.... But dad's a pastor, he will never forget this.... But at least mom is more accepting, I can get through to her.... But.... She always sides with dad in the end..... Why? Why did this have to happen to me? Why couldn't I be normal like everyone else? Why can't I love girls like a normal guy? Why must I have to deal with this. Once people will find out, they will kill me! I hate this!
The night I talked with mom I made a decision, writing my plan out on paper. If they were to still disapprove of me, I’d leave this world… I ran so fast, and found a side road… and I laid myself in the middle, trying to get comfortable with the cold, damp pavement, knowing this would be my final resting place. I saw bright headlights… I was so scared… There was no time to react.... He was going too fast.... I remember wishing that I could at least say a last goodbye when the tire crushed my skull, the quick crunch of bone on tar, not feeling a thing, but seeing the crimson blood before I died and... it was over before I knew...

A.R.Trama
Todd Daley's mother, a cheery Middle-aged woman who tries to understand Todd, even though she can not. I feel her voice would be much like the mother on the Brady Bunch.
Just a second sweety.... so, Walt, I saw it! A microwave oven! It was in the magazine, and we should save up for it!
Honey, I’d like to apologize, about what your father did to you, and all of this horribleness. Your father and I still love you a lot. And I’d understand if you feel hurt in anyway. So I’ve canceled all appointments with the therapist.
(Loud, angered, flustered) And how did that work out for you?!

jeffwerden
A pastor whom is also Todd's father. He does not believe in homosexuality and hates gays because of his stern religion, but later making a change in his point of view. His voice i feel would be like Portals Mr. Johnson, ( J.K. simmons, maybe not as gruff, and aged down.)
I said… What in Sam Hill did you just say?
You are not queer Todd! There is no such thing as a homosexual! Don't you ever dare tell me that you were born a homosexual. God sees everything! He has made everything equal!
Well I had to! It was my only choice, I care alot about that boy, and the only way he’d just listen is I’d have to-
...
But that’s the only way he’d just listen and…. And….. Oh god, what did I do...

A cheery girl in Todd's class who is madly in love with him, though he doesn’t feel the same way. high vocal, cheery.
And... I mean... I know this isn't traditional and all, but.... I like you Todd, and we would make a fantastic couple!
I swear to god Todd Daley, if you’re turning me down, well I…. Well I’ll tell the whole school you’re a queer! (pause) Fine then.
Hey Pastor Dailey and Mrs. Dailey! Any sign of Todd? I heard about your argument last night and I am so shocked he turned out to be ill! He rejected me last year, and I told him I’d tell everyone he’s queer…. I never thought he was actually…Oh, I hope he can be healed soon!

Role assigned to:
Poppletron
The love interest of Todd. He is a closeted teen who is/was extremely scared of coming out. He is sporty, and masculine. Lower vocal register to mid vocal.
Uh….N-No dude! Why would I wanna hang out with a guy when I’m gonna be with Debbie all night long?
It’s ok, no one’s around. Look, Todd, I’m sorry, But you gotta be careful! What if they find out that you’re gay… That I’m gay?! I can’t take that risk man. I’m sorry for acting all psycho… I gotta go. Catch ya on the flip-side I guess.
And I would make a difference how exactly? I’m sorry, Todd, I love you, I love you a lot, but I can not do that. Being gay scares me enough, and being open about it will just make it worse.

If he was my son, let me tell you-

I would have whipped the sucker till he was black and blue!
