The Sweet Tooth: A Short Play

Teacher: Hello Mrs. Smith, I need to talk to you.  It’s very important.

Mrs. Smith: Yes, what is it you need to say?

Teacher: Well, it’s about your son.  He is so addicted to sugar! 

Mrs. Smith: Is that true?

Son: Yes, of course it is.  I can’t get enough sugary things in my life!!!!!

Teacher: See what I mean?

Mrs. Smith: Well, I try to get my son to eat vegetables and nutritious things, but he refuses to eat them.

Son : Yeah!  They are disgusting!!!!

Teacher: But, you need to cut down on the sweet things, because it will cause you health problems!

Father (talking to Mrs. Smith): Well, I think my wife needs to do a better job cooking healthy food.  Her vegetables lack taste!

Mrs. Smith: I am outraged!  I have to cook because you are too lazy!  If you think you can do better, why don’t you cook?!!!!!!!

Father: But, I need to make money, so I don’t have time for that.  So, please learn to cook vegetables better! 

Mrs. Smith: I hate you.

Teacher: OK, OK!  Stop!  Your son has a problem, and now you guys blame each other.  You must work together!

Son: I love sugar!  I want cookies!  I want cake!  Give me now!!!!

Camp Doomsday, The Bell of Trust

By Nate Feldman Scene: Josh is standing beside a bell in front of the camp's main office.  The campers are gathered in front of him. Josh: Good morning to all of my Camp Doomsdayers!  Before we have breakfast and begin our daily activities, I want to introduce something to all of you.  This bell beside me is called "The Bell of Trust."  It is hear for anyone who wants to get the staff and the rest of the camp's attention for urgent matters, or if you wish to share an idea with everyone.  Anytime of day or night, just come here and ring, and we will come to you immediately to assist in the best way possible.  One thing we always teach here is the importance of building trust, and I hope that this bell shows how much you can trust us to be there for you, and also how much we in return trust you to use it wisely.
