Notes: "Your site lists playwright Max Oken and his 10-minute play 5000 Cigarettes. It was determined that this was plagiarized. Alex Broun wrote it and it was lifted word for word from the internet and given a new title. The original was called 10,000 Cigarettes. Mr. Broun has been informed, but you might want to remove the entry. If you have any questions, the original script can be found here: http://www.10-minute-plays.com/comedies/10000_cigarettes.html" - Please contact doollee if anyone wishes to pursue this and I will forward the emails to the relevant parties | ||||

Synopsis: William, a 22 year-old young man who has three obsessions: very strong long blacks, pining for his lost Salome, and listening to The Smiths. It is a time of confusion and upheaval for William, but one of discovery. One of these is 'the wonderful, sad, lyrical poetry mixed with brooding, soaring guitar riffs' of Eighties band The Smiths. The other is the deep and emotional connection he shares with his older friend, playwright Rick. But the final discovery to rock William's world is his unquenchable desire for a disaster named Salome. All of these elements are intertwined in this beautifully dark, funny and moving play - set to the music of The Smiths and Morrissey - the music that dictates William's early twenties: 'Half-life'. | ||||
