This is the story of a teenage girl whose life was going smoothly.
Her name was Lauren and she was always on the computer...... In the daytime, after school, she was in an internet cafe' and in the evening she was at home. If she had homework to do or something to study, she used to do everything at school or late in the night.
One day she was in the internet cafe' ( sound effect of a crowded place and someone typing something at the computer)(the noise of a crowd and of a door that opens and closes frequently goes throughout the story) when she signed up on a website that changed her life. That website was "FACEBOOK". While Lauren was using facebook one of her friends entered the cafe to greet her.(sound effect of a door that opens)(recorded sound effect of someone walking into a cafe)
"hi darling are you Ok?"
"yeah and you?"
"I'm good"
"what are you doing?"
" I'm using Facebook........I just signed in......I think you too have to join it"
"yeah maybe...but not today...you know some people, and I repeat,some people spend some hours for studying and now I have to go home"
"Ok sweetie bye" "go and study!"
"Bye" (sound effect of someone walking out of the cafe and of a door that opens and closes)
Everyday she was having many friends on Facebook.
One day she received a friend request from someone who claimed to be her friend.
She accepted the request.
He wrote her sweet things and she liked it.
" Ooh this guy is so sweet! No one has ever been so nice to me !"
She believed all his words. (there is a pause of 5 seconds: the sound of the crowd and of the door stops)
One day he decided to give her a date........in his house.
Some days later Lauren's friend called her on her mobile: "hey...how are you?"
"fine and you?"
"so so....how I feel depends from what you'll soon tell me!"
"What's the matter?"
"you know the guy you told me about the other day?"
"yes ...and then?"
"someone told me...,correct me if I'm wrong, that he gave you a date at his house and you accepted...is it true?"
"who told you that?"
"it doesn't matter...I just want to know if it's true"
(no sound during these last beats)
"so?"
"yes,....it's true"
"are you mad? you don't even know him!"
"well I don't think it's your business, after all I am the one who has a date!
"don't go, you don't really know him.....what if something happens to you??... don't go...". She continued telling her this, Lauren always replied saying " don't worry... nothing will happen to me!", and at the end her friend gave in.
Lauren liked him and trusted him so much that she was determined to go.
(recorded sound effect of an outdoor ambient with cars going on the road and some other noise)The day of the date she left home in time.(the sound of someone walking in a street) (sound of someone knocking at a door and after the noise of the door that squeaks ) (a door opens)She entered in his house and it was in darkness...........( recorded sound effect of someone walking in a room with fear)(the door shuts)and never came out .

class work- radio performance 19-11-09
Today is the first time all the group components are present.
After dividing each part I started adding some dialogues because Mr Smith told us it would have been better and we changed the venue from a room to an internet cafe.
Next time we are going to see if we need to modify the dialogues then we'll start putting all together.
