S.O.S: Sheffield Sirens (Script)

Here is the script draft from our 2nd Idea: Sheffield Sirens :)




Sheffield Sirens: Script (Draft)

SIRENS…

It’s 3:30am, and that’s the 4th Ambulance siren to wake me up tonight. It happens every night – siren here, siren there. It’s far too annoying.

Sheffield is always loud. No matter what the time, you’ll find somewhere full of life. Whether it be in the day, when everyone is shopping in town….

[Pause]

Or at night, when all the students come out to play and sleep in the road. I can’t say anything; I’ve been one of them.

[Pause]

Even though I’m a student, it’s still sometimes nice to get away to a quiet place, where you can just rest, listen to nature, just be with yourself.

[Fades to Silence]

[Sirens fade in]

Ah, the famous Sheffield Sirens again, early morning again, lack of sleep… AGAIN! I really wonder what accidents occur at this time…

[Silence?]

[Background Noise – Friends asking you to come out]

Go out to a nightclub? Should I? Hah, maybe this time the sirens won’t even wake me!

[Club Ambience]

My friends and I went to our favorite club; it’s been ages since we’ve done this. I miss just being with him, but hell, clubs are busy, you bump into so many people, and sometimes you get the wrong person.

[Background noise – club/guy shouting angrily at you for bumping into him]

I was having a nice night with my friends and didn’t want any trouble, so we ignored the guy and walked away – which only made him madder. He grabbed his drink, walked towards me and…

[Music Stops]

[Bottle Smashes]

[Silence]

[Sirens]

Now I know what accidents occur at this time. This time the sirens are my fault. I’m the one waking you, annoying you whilst you try to sleep.

[Sirens fade out]
