First Time – Short Script Review (Available for Production)

First Time

A young man pays a visit to a dingy back street massage parlour, but there’s more than a relaxing rub-down in the cards.

There’s nothing like a boy’s first time. First time playing baseball. First secret crush. First trip to a brothel . Um, I mean massage parlor… (Perhaps it’s best we stop right here.)

A dark drama, First Time opens as Michael, 18, stumbles into “5 Star Massage” and asks to “meet” a girl. (I promise, no more “air quotes”.) So baby-faced is this boy that the Madam asks for ID. But Michael doesn’t even have his driver’s license yet. Eventually the woman takes pity on Michael. After all, don’t boys deserve to have fun?

Michael’s introduced to Candy – a hardened pro who melts when she learns of Michael’s sexual innocence, and vows to give him an unforgettable first time. But before good times can roll, Michael makes an unfortunate comment; sending Candy spiraling into defensive mode. She’s a good person, supporting her daughter – and she deserves his respect. A raw back and forth ensues between the two, culminating in… well, you’ll have to read the script to find out.

Despite the graphic nature the script, First Time has touching human moments. And an ending you won’t expect…
