Monastery

A couple decades in the future higher education has evolved, and Academic Campuses (sometimes referred to as "monasteries") offer an affordable, though longer and more intensive, alternative to universities. In this hour-long play, the student editors of the Marietta Academic Campus's literary journal, The MAC, meet just before the start of Summer to finish up the latest issue, and to celebrate their success.
As the play continues, a hypothetical conversation about graduating early and starting up a magazine outside the monastery turns into a spirited argument. Cast is 3F, 2M. This publication also includes an afterword by the author, in which he describes his own arguments with himself about college, and the outlining process for the play.
