Jack And Jill Plays - Part 50 - Forbidden Fruit



a new play.  Don't do anything with it before you ask me.  Thanks.

Forbidden Fruit
by Adam Szymkowicz

(JACK and JILL and SNAKE in the garden.  JACK and JILL are not wearing a lot.)


SNAKE
So you gotta eat the fruit.

JACK
I don't want to eat the fruit.  I mean are there cookies.

JILL
Eat the fruit.

SNAKE
Eat it.

JILL
It's good for you.  Look.  I'm eating it too.

JACK
I know.  I just don't want to.

SNAKE
Eat it!

JILL
For once will you just make a better choice?  I'm tired of all the bad choices you make.

JACK
Fine.  Fine.  Look.  I'm eating it.  See?

JILL
It's good, right?

JACK
It's good.

SNAKE
I'll see you guys later.

(Exit SNAKE.)

JACK
Wait a minute.  Were we allowed to eat this fruit?

JILL
Why wouldn't be allowed to eat fruit.

JACK
I feel like someone told me something about the fruit over here.

JILL
Maybe.

JACK
I'm almost sure.

JILL
Do you feel different after eating it?

JACK
A little.  Like I know better that I don't know anything.

JILL
Harmless.

JACK
Are you cold?

JILL
A little.

JACK
We should put something on.

JILL
Okay.

JACK
You think we could get in trouble?  For eating it?

JILL
I know!   We'll write a note.  Take this down.

(JAKE gets paper and writes.)

JILL
This is just to say

We have eaten
The fruits
that were on
the tree

and which
we think we were probably
not supposed
to eat

Forgive us
They were pretty good
and we feel
only a little different

JACK
Good.  I'll put it under the rock.
