I'm working on a way to remedy that issue, so please hang tight!I'm currently spending my time making audio drama versions of these plays as well as getting them officially copyrighted, so if you have the funds, consider buying me a coffee so that I can get these out sooner.
Alright, Who Made The Nerd Student Council President!?
Nani!? Is it true that Midway High School’s new student council president is that weird kid who draws anime boys making out during class? You’d better believe it! After popular girl Katherine tried to sabotage the girl she forced to be her competition (long story), Juniper found herself winning the race and wanting revenge. She makes Katherine and her two accomplices — Chryssie and Audrey — her servants. Katherine, however, is not willing to go down without a fight. Will Juniper put an end to Katherine’s oppression? Will Audrey and Chryssie finally grow a backbone? And, is it just me, or does anyone else get weird vibes from the student council teacher Mr. Banks?
OFFICIAL AUDIO DRAMA COMING SOON
Alright, Who Made The Nerd Student Council President!? Z (The Playwright's Cut)
Nani kore!? Is it true that everyone has it out for Midway High School’s new student council president? You’d better believe it! This full-length version of Alright, Who Made The Nerd Student Council President!? extends all ten scenes of the one-act version while integrating five additional scenes that go into the aftermath of Juniper’s otaku wrath amongst the wider student population and how deep the gross nature of Midway High’s staff members go. Will the students rise against the oppressive regime of kaichou Juniper-sama? Will the kaichou herself learn how to control her power? And, I’m pretty sure it isn’t just me, but can somebody please explain why I get weird vibes from the student council teacher Mr. Banks?
