|a Presenter: Elizabeth Mann. Abstract: The Draft is a short original play that tells a fictionalized story of a real event in American history. In the year 1969, a draft lottery for the Vietnam War was held and televised live for all of America to watch. 366 dates, all corresponding to the days of the year, were pulled and assigned a number; millions of men aged 18-25 would be called and drafted into what is, arguably, one of the most controversial wars in all of American history, and anyone who tuned in would have known. The Draft tells the story of a divided household, one half supporting the war and the other against it, all the while keeping their eyes on the television until one very specific birthdate is called. War is a bloody, messy thing that only succeeds in tearing societies apart for very little outcomes; but war is even worse when you know that, eventually, the smiling man on the screen will call you to join in the fight, regardless of how you feel. |
