There’s an interesting battle going on behind the scenes!
When a celebrity gets into trouble lately, sending them to rehab seems to be a default action to get them out of the spotlight and to make them look sincere in their contrition and their desire to change.
Unfortunately, it often has little to do with the actual problem.
Harvey Weinstein is a criminal who assaulted dozens of women. Does anyone really believe that a couple of weeks in rehab will fix him right up and excuse his disgusting behavior? Sex addiction. Yeah… that’s it! That’s the problem! Let’s send him to rehab!
This film actor’s PR team is failing him miserably. Stupid statements to excuse his bad behavior, conflating one issue with another, making the accusations about him rather than his victims.
What a disaster. So now they are trying to convince him to go to rehab for alcohol. Alcohol. Yeah… that’s it! That’s the problem! Let’s send him to rehab!
The only thing is… our actor doesn’t want to go!
Because then he would have to stop drinking!
And our actor LOVES to go out drinking!
In honor of this almost Shakespearean battle, we have written a play. Here is the opening scene, which takes place in a publicist’s office in 1599 A.D. :
REHAB
A PLAY BY BG
ACT 1, SCENE 1
To rehab or not to rehab? That is the question.
Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous molestation accusations,
Or to take in four weeks of rehab against a sea of bad publicity.
We will be happy to perform our play in its entirety on stage at the Old Vic.
