Read this excerpt from a play.
(The scene begins aboard a whale-watching boat. Many students slouch on benches, others lean lazily on ferry railings. A few students thumb through shiny brochures, shaking their heads and grumbling quietly.)
GREGOR: This is not what I expected.
OMAR: Yeah. Whale watching? More like wave watching. What a rip off.
(OMAR turns to a whale picture in his brochure and holds it up to the group. A few heads nod, but it is not the reaction he hoped for. He retreats to a quiet bench. A splash a few yards out in the water stirs the group, and many rise.)
GREGOR: That’s more like it. Guys, c’mere. Look here, just below the surface. (Students lean forward, many pull phones and cameras from their coat pockets.)
