Plays by Cassie Jordan

This play script, "A Matter of Perspective" by Cassie Jordan, unfolds around a local athletics competition where a young runner, Debbie, is defeated, much to the dismay of her fiercely protective mother. The mother suspects the winner, Sophie, of having an unfair advantage, raising a sensitive social issue that gained prominence during the 2024 Olympics. The drama explores this issue through the varied viewpoints of characters including the coach, an official, Debbie, Sophie, and Debbie's mother. Ultimately, the play examines themes of fairness, acceptance, and understanding different perspectives when dealing with complex and topical subjects within the context of competitive sport.
