Welcome to the website for The Real Deal. My name is Ashley Marlow, this is my 2nd year in Adv. Theatre. The Real Deal is a play I wrote about high school experiences, as seen through the eyes of Emma and Jessie (past and present). Jessie and Emma are freshmen, and meet a girl, Alexis, and have trouble befriending her. Their one friend, Mrs. Bryan, their English teacher, guides them for High School.
