Hope Springs Eternal:
A Play in One Act
by Jeff Siperly
Characters: Don, 35, handsome, bearish Italian
Jess, 49, gets by with his looks
Setting: Interior, bedroom
Time: Oh, about 2:19am
*************************************************************************
Don. (Sleeping hard, facing the closet)
Mkmmmmkkch...k... Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz...k... Nknnnchnnnn... Zzzzzzzzz
(Jess, who's partially an insomniac, has fallen asleep maybe 30 minutes prior is facing the window. Rolls over to prepare to pinch Don's nose to stop incessant snoring and assorted mouth noises)
(As soon as movement is made Don rolls over and attempts to mount Jess. Proceeds to forcefully kiss him)
Don.
Oh, you make me so happy. I love you so damn much.
(Don gets off of Jess and rolls over to face the closet once again.)
Don.
Mkmmmmkkch...k... Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz...k... Nknnnchnnnn... Zzzzzzzzz
(Jess stares up at ceiling wondering what the hell just happened.
THE END
*******************************************************************************
Length of play: My guess is maybe 15-20 seconds.
This is just a play. Not based on anything... at all.
Names have still been changed to protect the innocent.
