Roswell 1947 Revised for 2012 vol.1 pg. 1


Roswell 1947 an original play by Ken David Stewart

This is a fictional play that has some historical basis in the Roswell Incident of 1947. In this play Mr. Stewart wanted to write something for his class of students with psychiatric disabilities. As he could not find anything suitable to use for his drama class he decided to write his own plays. Roswell 1947 is the result. It's genre is a combination of comedy and science fiction. Mr. Stewart has fully fictionalized this account of the Roswell Incident so that none of what he has written is to be interpreted as historical fact.

Act I Scene One:

Narrator: As our play opens a group of old men are sitting on rocking chairs outside the Roswell General Store. It's getting late in the evening and and the temperature is dropping rapidly.
The men are suddenly startled by an unusual sight in the sky.

Dewey: Look up yonder. What the heck is that in the sky?

Buford: I don't know. Looks like a silver disc with bright flashing lights.

Clem: Whatever it is, it's losing elevation real fast.

Dewey: I can't see it anymore it's just disappeared behind yonder hill.
