Jack And Jill Plays - Part 10 - Cupcakes


About Jack and Jill Plays:


This is a new thing I'm doing.  Posting a short play every day as long as I can.  This does not mean that I wrote this play today but I might have.  (My life is not always my own what with work and a 4 year old running around so maybe I wrote it today or maybe it was stockpiled in preparation for the days I can't get in writing.)  My goal is to do at least 100 of these or maybe more but probably 45 or 50 is the length of a full length play so even that would be good.  100 would be better.  300?  amazing.  500?  Does anyone want 500 of these plays?  Anyway, the goal is consecutive days.

The normal things about plays apply-- don't produce or reproduce this play without my permission.  I wrote it so I own it.  Etc.




Cupcakes
by Adam Szymkowicz

(JACK and JILL are eating cupcakes.  They are almost done.)

JACK
How's yours?

JILL
Good.  Yours?

JACK
Good.  What were we upset about?

JILL
I forget.

JACK
Don't think of it.  We'll get upset again.

JILL
I wish my job was just eating cupcakes all day.

JACK
How is that a job?

JILL
I know.  I'm saying I wish it was a job.

JACK
Yeah.  Why can't jobs be things that aren't jobs.

JILL
Yeah.

JACK
I think I need a day job again.

JILL
I know.

JACK
I'll push paper somewhere.  Like a job that isn't busy all day.  Like that kind of job.  Where do you get that?

JILL
I don't know.

JACK
Or maybe I could wait tables like you.

JILL
You can't do that.

JACK
Yeah.  I know.  I would be bad at that.

JILL
Yeah.

JACK
Maybe I'll become a lawyer.

JILL
You can't be a lawyer.

JACK
I know.  We should get a couple more cupcakes.

(They sigh.  Lick their fingers.)
