Reflection on the play

The play emphasised the problems that young people face today and as a result the manyt problems that they can get themselves into if they are not helped. The play mainly focused on the character of Kayla and how she viewed everyone who was apart of her classroom. in her diary she wrote about how each one of them was special and the qualities she admired in each of them. She was considered as the quiet weird one. In the end of the play, she committed suicide as their problems became hers.

The play also focused on the misguided ones such as Leslie who was the bully of the class. She later became involved in a gang and though her attitude towards everyone was bad before it became increasingly worst. There was "chatty" one who felt that it was her right to be involved in everyone's business and to help them. But it is her "miss know it all" attitude that was her downfall.

In addition, the playwrit was able to involve the audience in every aspect. It appealed to the audience's sense of humor and sense of saddness. By the end of the play, almost everyone was either near tears or in tears.
