ok heres part one of my play!!!

Jim and Liz are in the living room of their loft on Park Ave. Liz is reading a magazine. Jim is watching TV. He’s making noises and screams “touchdown!!!” and starts to do a dance. Liz gives him a look.

Jim: (looking innocent) What?

Liz: (jokingly) You’re so immature!

Jim: (looking over at Liz.) Whatever. Honey, when are we going out to dinner with your grandparents?

Liz: (astonished that Jim didn’t remember) Tonight!!!! Don’t you remember me telling you that? (She puts her magazine down loudly)

Jim: (angry that he didn’t remember but not wanting Liz to know that he is) What!! Tonight! You must be kidding! I want to watch Monday night football! Football is my life.

Liz: (extremely annoyed that she’s not his life) What about moi?!

Jim: (sheepishly) You’re important too.

Liz: (getting back on track) Well, you are the one who wanted to go out with them in the 1st place. Remember? (She’s still mad at Jim for forgetting)

Jim: I never said that! (He’s trying to get comfortable on the couch)

Liz: (Gets up and turns off the TV.)

Jim: Hey I was watching that! (He’s trying to make a big deal out of nothing)

Liz: Get over it! (In a mean tone)

Jim: (impatiently) Well then when are we going to dinner?

Liz: (informatively) I told them we would meet them at Le Bon Soupe at five.

Jim: (extremely sarcastically) Five! Who eats at five! I thought you were English not Italian!

Liz: (sarcastically) Haha. Very funny. (Her voice changes to a more serious tone. Yet she is still stuttering trying to think of a good excuse) Well…they’re old and…they want to catch the early bird special, and they always on time.

Jim: (angry yet surprised she couldn’t think of a better excuse) Early bird special! Oh really?! And by the way age is not an excuse.

Liz: (flustered) just go get ready!

Jim: fine!

(“Ughs” are heard in the background. They walk off stage stamping there feet.)

ok part2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jim and Liz at Le Bon Soupe; they both have nice formal clothes on; they are sitting next to each other at a table. It’s 5:30. They grandparents are late and Liz and Jim are both fidgeting.


Jim: (annoyed) I thought you said they were punctual.

Liz: (trying not to realize that she had said that) I never said they were punctual.

Jim: Let me refresh your memory. (In a mimicking voice) “They’re always on time.”

Grandparents enter and interrupt the conversation. Ethel is wearing very extravagant clothes. Ed is wearing a suit.

Ethel: (in British accent) (to Elizabeth; totally disregarding Jim) So nice to see you darling.

Ed: (also in British accent; to Elizabeth) Elizabeth, darling I haven’t seen you in ages!

Jim is in the background twiddling his thumbs.

Liz: (to grandparents) Gran, poppy. (Motioning to Jim)

Jim steps forward.

Liz: This is my fiancé, Jim Marshall.

LizQuietly to Jim) You better speak up, they’re a little hard of hearing.

Ed: (to Jim very jubilant) You must be the lucky fellow!

Jim: (very loud) Nice to meet you!

Ed: (whispers to Ethel) I think he’s a little loud.

Ethel: I agree.

Liz: Why don’t we sit down, and order.

Ethel: Sure honey.

Ed: (to Liz) Honey, we already ate. Weren’t we supposed to come just for dessert?

Liz: (unsure) Uhh… yeah.

Jim: (to Liz, sarcastically) Nice going.

Pierre enters.

Pierre: Good evening. I am Pierre and I will be your waiter for this evening. Are you ready to order?

Liz: We are going to skip right to dessert.

Pierre: As you wish, madam. I’ll go get the menus.

(Pierre exits)

Ed: (to Jim) So what do you do for a living Jim?

Jim: (embarrassed of his job) I’m a sports’ news broadcaster.

Ed: That must be rather interesting.

(Giggles are heard in the background; Ethel and Liz were telling each other something.)

(Pierre enters; he hands menus to everyone; “thank you’s” are heard)

Pierre: Are you ready to order?

Jim: (to Pierre) Yes I believe we are ready. I will have a grand mocha latte frappachinolino. And a chocolate mousse, please.

Pierre: Oui monsieur. And the beautiful lady next to you?

Liz: (giggles) (to Pierre) I would like a cappuccino and a Crème Brule, please. (Takes menu from Jim and gives, the menus to Pierre.) Granny dearest, I believe it’s your turn.

Ethel: (to Pierre) May I have a Crème Brule and the biggest cup of tea you can get your hands on.

Pierre: Oui madam, and what would the gentleman like- (he was cut off)

Ethel: Ohhh! And make sure that there is lots of sugar. I have an extremely large sweet tooth.

Pierre: Yes madam. Now for the gentleman. (Motions to Ed)

Ed: I’ll have the chocolate mud masterpiece, and a giant cup of tea. (Rubs hands together, hungrily)

Pierre: Yes, monsieur. Will that be all?

Liz: Yes. Thank you.

Pierre exits.

The deserts come out. You can see the ravenous eyes, darting at the cake and desserts.

Ethel drops her fork.

Ethel: Oops! I’ll get that.

She stuffs the fork into her purse.

Ethel: (innocently) I can’t find it!

Everybody is now looking under the table- except Ethel. She is stuffing forks and knifes into her purse.

She looks back under the table just as everyone’s heads pop up.

Ethel: This is just horrid! (Dramatically)
Jim: (screaming because he thinks they’re hard of hearing.) Now don’t worry ma’am!!!!

Liz: (to Jim) What are you going to do about it?

Jim: (to Liz) I was just trying to shut her up.

Liz: How dare you speak about my grandmother that way!!!

Ethel: Did I hear my name?

Jim and Liz together: No!

Ethel: Okay then.
