                                Note
                                Part of the Odd Socks +2, a collection of 3 short plays for all ages.
                                First performance
                                First performed by Stage 51 drama school in Knocklyon, Dublin, between 2008 and 2011.
                                Synopsis
                                Fiona is watched by her anxious mother and older brother as she tries to manoeuvre her demanding group of friends into some sort of order she can manage.

                                The plays are easily produced needing little more than an empty stage and a number of chairs suitably arranged. All three plays were written with specific cast sizes in mind but can be adapted to suit the needs of new groups.
