Idea for a play |
|
|
Set is a platform onstage, making up a living room. The three main walls of the room are made up of wallpaper stretched over a frame (no actual walls). Two, three person cast. Act I consists of banal dialogue about nothing really, maybe reality tv or something topical-ish.
Between the acts, the platform rotates 180. We don't see the actors for about 20 minutes of the second act. Then one of them notices the walls are made of paper. Cue ripping the walls down, the characters noticing the audience and then slowly going insane for the rest of the play with the revelation that they are fictional. Lots of screaming at the audience, maybe someone's hair turns white in full view of the audience, then the play ends with the cast sitting on the edge of the stage for 10 minutes, staring silently.
It'll be called "Post-Modernism: a Satire".
