John Proctor Is the Villain by Kimberly Belflower

Directed by Marti Lyons

Setting: Northeast Georgia; Helen County High, the only high school in a one-stoplight town; spring semester junior year, 2019.

CARTER SMITH – mid-30's; male; white – a teacher. A former golden boy, but one of those rare smart and sensitive ones. Now he’s a great teacher: charming, engaging, goofy.

SHELBY HOLCOMB – 16; female; any race – a student. Her brain works faster than her mouth, but her mouth works pretty dang fast. People have always underestimated her.

BETH POWELL – 17; female; any race – a student. Nervous and ambitious and enthusiastic. Kind of like if Rory Gilmore and Paris Geller had a baby and raised her in the Deep South.

NELL SHAW – 16; female; Black – a student. From Atlanta. Grounded, sincere, and genuinely curious about the world. A good judge of character and a quick study.

IVY WATKINS – 17; female; any race – a student. Fiercely loyal; well-intentioned; kindhearted. From old Southern money. Not a mean girl.

RAELYNN NIX – 16; female; any race – a student. A cheerleader type who has always lived her life by other peoples’ standards. Razor-sharp but has no idea – until she does.

MASON ADAMS – 17; male; any race – a student. On the basketball team. He’s never really tried at school or maturity before, and he’s surprised by how good it feels. Earnest and affable.

LEE TURNER – 16; male; white – a student. A Carhart-wearing good ol’ boy. Deeply insecure and without the tools to deal with it. He’s always been good at getting what he wants.

BAILEY GALLAGHER – 24; female; any race – a counselor. Sweet in all the ways Southern women are supposed to be, but there’s more than meets the eye. This is her first real job out of college, and she really cares about succeeding for the students and herself.
