SCENES: 1. NOW, 2. THEN, 3. AGAIN, 4. AND LATER







SCENE 1: NOW, THE LIVINGROOM: CLAY and ANNA atre sitting side by side on a couch center stage facing the audience. A coffee table is directly in front of them. On the table are, two coffee cups sitting on coasters (ANNA is very fussy about the coasters), a pack of cigarettes, a lighter, a half filled ashtray, a tv guide, crossword or word jumble puzzle book, pens and pencils and a couple of remote controls. Periodically, CLAY OR ANNA will pick up the television remote and point at the audience as if channel surfing.



CLAY

Nothing but reruns.

ANNA

Let's watch a dvd.

CLAY

I don't feel like getting off the couch, do you? Keep flipping; there's a thousand channels in high Def, has to be something good somewhere.


ANNA

What did we do before Dvr and Tivo?



CLAY

We drank copious amounts of alcohol and had a lot of sex.


ANNA

Sounds good…


CLAY

Which part, sex or drinking?


ANNA

Both…Oh, look, there's Iron Chef.

CLAY

What's the secret ingredient?

CLAY and ANNA
KUMQUATS!!!!


CLAY

(with remote)

What are kumquats anyway?



ANNA

Damned if I know, vegetable, animal or mineral?



CLAY

Sounds like something found in the back of those really personal personal adds: Wanted SWF that likes to bike, ski, take long walks in the moonlight, tea-bagging, light bondage, and coffee colonics. Must have own kumquats.



ANNA

I am not going to encourage you by laughing.



CLAY

We've been married for forty-five years, you should know by now that I don't need encouragement.
