drama 55

I understand you're interested in "drama 55." Here's a quick breakdown of what this could mean, and then I'll provide you with the most likely interpretation: a short, original dramatic script for two characters. Drama 55 could refer to: A Song Title: A track by rapper Jay-Z from his album Reasonable Doubt. A Course Code: A university course, e.g., "THTR 55: Acting for the Camera." A "K-Drama" or "C-Drama" Episode: The 55th episode of a television series. A DJ or Producer Alias: For artists specializing in House or Electronic music. Most likely, you're asking for a short drama script with the number 55 as a thematic element. So, here is a short, original dramatic scene for you. Scene: The Number Characters: CLARA (35): A meticulous, anxious biostatistician. LEO (36): Her husband, a pragmatic, patient history teacher. Setting: A clean, modern kitchen. A simple notepad and pen sit on the island. CLARA is staring at a post-it note. LEO enters with a cup of coffee. (The scene is called "Drama 55" because the number 55 is the central mystery and source of tension.) LEO Youve been staring at that for ten minutes. Is it a math problem? CLARA (Not looking up) Its a sign. LEO Its a post-it note with 55 written on it. I wrote it. For the Wi-Fi password. Remember? We changed it last week. CLARA Dont patronize me, Leo. I know what you wrote. But why 55? LEO (Baffled) Because its easy to remember? Its two fives. Its the year my dad was born. CLARA (Her voice becomes tight, almost clinical) Its also the atomic number of Cesium. The most reactive metal. It reacts with water, and it explodes. Thats what Ive been feeling, Leo. Like Cesium in water. LEO (Puts his coffee down, concerned) Okay. Talk to me. Whats wrong? CLARA I ran the numbers. For us. For our life. LEO You cant run numbers on a marriage. CLARA Why not? I ran them on my work. On my cancer research. Data doesnt lie. I made a chart. Of your late nights. Of the forgotten dinners. Of the times you said you were fine when you werent. LEO Clara CLARA It came out to 55. The average number of significant, unresolved silences between us per month. The number of small, un-ignorable fractures that make the whole structure unstable. (Silence. The weight of her words hangs in the air. Leo thinks.) LEO Your chart is it a line graph? CLARA What? LEO A line graph. You know, ones that go up? Because you forgot to chart the other thing. The number of times I watch you sleep. Its 55. The number of times I tell the guys at work, My wife is saving lives. Its 55. The number of times I have chosen you, even when I didnt understand you. (He takes the post-it note.) LEO This isnt a sign of the end. Its just a number. A neutral number. It can be the count of your explosives or the count of my promises. Youre a scientist. You know the data is only as good as the variables you choose to measure. (He puts the post-it note back on the counter. He picks up his coffee and walks out of the kitchen. Clara looks at the note. The anger in her eyes softens into confusion, then a flicker of hope. She picks up the pen.) CLARA (To herself) I didnt chart the promises. (She slowly writes a + sign next to the 55, turning it into 55+. She starts a new column.) BLACKOUT. I hope this short "Drama 55" meets your needs. If you were looking for something else (the song lyrics, a specific episode guide, etc.), please let me know
