Preliminary task script

This is the script Hollie and I wrotefor the waiting room:


The waiting room
DANIELLE walks through the door into the waiting room. She passes another patient and goes to the desk.
DANIELLE
Hello
CHANNEL
Hi, what’s your name?
DANIELLE
Danielle
CHANNEL
Go straight through please…
CHANNEL directs DANIELLE to the doctor (DR GLYNN). DANIELLE walks over to DR GLYNN and DR GLYNN shakes her hand and introduces herself as they sit down.
DR GLYNN
Hello I’m Dr Glynn and your name is…Danielle?
DANIELLE
Yes
DR GLYNN
Okay Danielle I’m going to get you to fill out a quick form for me…in fact ill fill it out for you. So it’s Danielle with a D.
DANIELLE nods.
DR GLYNN
How old are you?
DANIELLE
16.
DR GLYNN
So why are you here Danielle?
DANIELLE
I don’t know…
DANIELLE takes out a chocolate bar. A Whisper…her favourite.
DR GLYNN
What’s that you have there? Is that a chocolate bar?
DANIELLE looks at DR GLYNN strangely but nods along.
DR GLYNN
Ooo whisper is that you’re favourite? That’s my favourite.
DANIELLE
Ooo look the suns come out. We should go outside…
DR GLYNN
No I don’t think that’s a good idea.
DANIELLE
Why not...we could have the meeting out side with the birds and the bees…
DR GLYNN
Why don’t we have it in here and we can look outside.
DANIELLE
It feels like the walls are closing in.
DANIELLE is paranoid.
DR GLYNN
What’s the matter Danielle?
DANIELLE
Is it me or is the room getting smaller?
DR GLYNN
Danielle are you okay?
DR GLYNN is interrupted by another patient, Hollie.
HOLLIE
Dr Glynn, Dr Glynn I need to talk to you!!! (shouting)
DR GLYNN
Hollie what are you doing here? Do the nurses know your out?
HOLLIE runs out excited and DR GLYNN runs after her, worrying, leaving DANIELLE by herself.
