The Island
Landon Matthew for Elias
One of three main characters: A journalist with an optimistic personality, Elias is determined to use what little knowledge he has to get off of the Island, and acts as a defacto leader of the survivors of the plane crash. This part, like all of the parts, has a lot of monologuing, so be prepared for that!

I remember looking out the window when the left wing of the plane lost both of its engines. The panic on board was one of the scariest things I’ve ever experienced. The whole plane was shaking like a rock tumbler, passengers bouncing around the cabin, screaming, crying…it was truly horrific…then I hit my head and everything went black.
It’s day…eight, I think? I’m starting to lose track.
Talking to the tape helps. Get your frustrations out. Plus, think of how many people will want to hear what we went through if we make it back home?
