Bad Company, Daniel P. Coughlin, Drama, TWB Press

It’s circa 1990. In a small town in Wisconsin, Patrick Welch wants to break away from his friends and join the Marines. They’re looking for a few good men, not geniuses, but their standards are high. Problem is, Pat’s friends are party animals and all-around losers. Sex, drugs, and Rock-n-Roll. He can’t get away from all the partying. But when his older brother dies in a car accident, Pat loses sight of his goal, gets in trouble with the law, and jeopardizes his chance of joining the Marines. Worse, because of the bad company he keeps, his girlfriend dumps him. However, his grandfather and an assertive Marine recruiter hound him every time he screws up. If he doesn’t straighten up, his dreams of leaving town and becoming a Marine will be dashed, and he’ll end up just like his friends...Bad Company.
