Jack And Jill Plays - Part 38 - Everyone





About Jack and Jill Plays:

This is a new thing I'm doing.  Posting a short play every day as long as I can.  

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


Everyone
by Adam Szymkowicz

(JILL alone writing in a notebook.)

VOICE
Jill knows they are watching her.

(JILL looks around.)

VOICE
Jill knows they think she can't be trusted.

JILL
But I can.  But I can.

VOICE
Jill is up for review.

JILL
When?

VOICE
Soon.

JILL
I'm doing all the things.  Sometimes I stumble but I get up again.  Please.  Take in account all the work I've put in.

VOICE
Jill knows no one is watching.  Deep down she knows but still she behaves.

JILL
Mostly.

VOICE
Most of the time.

JILL
They don't know I exist.

VOICE
No one is paying attention to her at all.  But also.

JILL
Everyone is watching all the time.  Can you see me?  Do you see me?  See me.  See me!

VOICE
Everyone turns away.
