Jwanouskos It’s All in the Mix It’s All in the Mix Time: Now and also maybe a couple years before Place: Bay Area, a space with a DJ set-up, two turntables and a mixer, near it are crates full of records and a pair of headphones. It transforms between an off-the-grid record store, house parties, bars, clubs, and the spaces in between. Note: Whenever June isn’t in a scene, she should be someplace on stage, in her space, perhaps her apartment, mixing music, as if each song picked, each scene, is a song in her mix. Characters: JUNE, a young woman in her twenties, aspiring to be a DJ BIZ, a young man in his twenties, a local DJ genius who works at a record store PAT, a young man in his twenties, a local DJ part of Biz’s crew, his best friend 2 B. Jwanouskos It’s All in the Mix ACT ONE PROLOGUE (In the black, the start of a mix of songs like “Gorgy Porgy” by Toto, old school hip hop, modern R&B, and dance music. Lights slowly reveal a DJ, whose identity is unknown, getting into said mix – adjusting the levels, cueing the tracks, scratching, etc. Lights reveal JUNE as the DJ. She steps forward.) JUNE See, everyone wants to be a DJ. It’s the lifestyle. It’s the atmosphere.
