Statement of Intent
The themes of my radio drama are crime, mystery and murder, these are themes that I know very well as, I have an interest in them and most books and film I have read in the past have consisted of these themes. I also believe that I am perfect for writing this radio drama because I have had this idea for a very long time and have even prepared a script for it in the past, so I know it very well. I know that I want it to be very exciting by not giving it a linear stricter and adding flashbacks and narration. I also want it to be very thrilling and exciting for the audience and I want it to leave theme thinking and dazzled by the cliff-hanger ending of it.
Storyline
Zarrah is having coffee with her Angelika on a normal Monday morning, when a receptionist comes and tells her to go to Mr Jacksons Office, she walks into the office and he tells her she is promoted to level 8. She moves her belonging to her new office and then realizes that her office is really silent (no phone calls). She then notices that she is the only person left on her floor and just as she is about to leave she receives and phone call from an unknown caller. The phone call tells her that she has until midnight to successfully rob seven billion dollars from the mango company and failing to do so, will result to a brutal death of her and her family.
