My 6th Grade Play Where Everyone Announces Their Evil Plan

Everyone knows characters need to explain their motivations aloud to whoever is nearby.

Chris and I read my 6th grade play, complete with a banished villain named Orgoth who “loves revenge,” a king who hires a mercenary to stop him, and a twist ending 11-year-old me was very proud of. Plus: if the show’s big enough a year from now, we’re performing this live on stage.

Character Development is a comedy podcast where voice actors and I roast my cringiest old stories.
