\maketitle
\castpage
\cast{Eleanor} A girl of age 18. She likes pies and $\pi$.
\cast{Cat} A large creature that meows.
\notes
This is a sample of what the $sides$ package for \LaTeX\ can do.
\newact
\newscene
\stagedir{2003, New York City. The \chara{Cat} and \chara{Eleanor} are engaging in conversation upon a meadow.}
\repl{Cat} Meow. I am a kitten. Kittens like to meow.
\repl{Eleanor} Yes, indeed. \pause\ But the question is, do cats like to typeset in \LaTeX ?
\repl{Cat} I do not know. Let us find out!
\stagedir{They exit.}
\newscene
\stagedir{Five hours later. \chara{Eleanor} enters and rushes across the stage.}
\repl{Ellie} \paren{Angrily.} My document class does not work! The cat has destroyed my code!
\stagedir{\chara{Eleanor} exits.}
\newactnamed{Interlude}
\stagedir{The \chara{Cat} is eating a biscuit on top of a roof.}
\repl{Cat} Cats are not known to give monologues. But they are also not known to talk. So I am an exception.
You see, all is relative---including class paths. Eleanor failed in that she did not take this into account.
This is a mighty tasty biscuit.
\stagedir{The \chara{Cat} exits.}
\newact
\newscenenamed{The Final Scene}
\stagedir{Three days later. \chara{Eleanor} and the \chara{Cat} speak to each other upon a roof on a stormy night. \chara{Eleanor} is about to jump off the edge.}
\repl{Cat} Do not jump, dear girl!
\repl{Eleanor} But I must! For I cannot write my documents in \LaTeX ! \paren{She jumps.}
\repl{Cat} No!
\stagedir{Blackout. We hear the sound of a ``splat''. End of play.}
