Customer Reviews
Just One Day is a one-act play (30 mins.) that deals with the controversial issue of abortion. The perspective of the cast and crew is that this is a difficult time for everyone involved, especially those without a voice. Follow the chaos that permeates young peoples' lives and the obvious lack of support and information that ultimately leads to their decision. This play has huge implications for adolescents, parents, teachers and community members as we follow Emily, Mary and Michael through Just One Day.
