Synopsis
Blaire has everything—good looks, popularity and a brain. It's her senior year, and she's going to be valedictorian. No one is surprised when she is chosen homecoming queen at the season's final football game. Her friends are delighted—everybody likes her. Then Blaire finds out that she has cancer. The play has fun, excitement and some tears. All but one of the characters are teenage. Audiences of all ages enjoy it. Young people see themselves; adults see their children in familiar situations and recall their own teen years—and perhaps offer a prayer of thankfulness. Her Senior Year play makes you think. The setting is the Doghouse Restaurant, the favorite hangout for the young people of the small town of Clearwater. The author set the play in Texas, but with a few minor changes in the dialog—permission for which is granted—it could take place anywhere.

Customer Reviews
This is a very condensed, accessible script that young performers can readily connect to their own experiences ... It does, however, require some very attentive directing, as the play can easily settle into five scenes of angst-afflicted teenagers sitting at tables talking. On the whole, it gives young performers the opportunity to produce good theatre art.
Hints, Tips, and Tricks
I found it extremely important to make sure my leads had a great connection with each other. I increased the time they spent together just getting to know each other and learn about being a couple.
