We held a screenplay competition and then did a Zoom table-read of the winning script. Here it is! "The Locket" by Erin Rider.

ACTORS - DEAL ALERT!
Okay, here's another one! It's not as big as the previous ring light offer we posted, but it's still a heck of a deal!
Required a subscription to the deal site, and they ask you leave a review upon receipt (not required, but it's why it so cheap).
But normally $79.99 and you get it for $16!!
Deals site to buy through is at https://app.dealstoreview.com 💰
