Scooter Thomas Makes It To The Top Of The World

Synopsis

THE STORY: Dennis receives a call from his mother telling him that his best friend from boyhood, Scooter Thomas, has died.

Shaken, Dennis packs for the funeral and recalls their relationship in brief, poignant scenes, during which he plays both himself and other friends from his past, some of whom went to college or got married.

Scooter dropped out of life, however, and took a job in the Post Office.

He talked of going off to California, but gradual disenchantment overcame him as his hopes remained unfulfilled.

Ultimately, the play looks at the choices we make when youthful expectations meet the realities of adulthood.
