Monologue Text

You think you'd like to get rid of me
but I could take care of you forever, Francois!
Sometimes, Francois, I think you are a good person
if only sometimes you wouldn't try so hard
if you would just relax
let life come to you
take it as it is…

Please feel free to take the plays from this website and use them freely as a resource for your own work: that is to say, don't just make some cuts or rewrite a few passages or re-arrange them or put in a few texts that you like better, but pillage the plays as I have pillaged the structures and contents of the plays of Euripides and Brecht and stuff out of Soap Opera Digest and the evening news and the internet, and build your own, entirely new, piece--and then, please, put your own name to the work that results.

But, if you would like to perform the plays essentially or substantially as I have composed them, they are protected by copyright in the versions you read here, and you need to clear performance rights with ICM, 40 W 57th Street, New York, New York 10019, attention Sam Cohn—or get in touch with Libby Edwards by email at charlesmeeplays@yahoo.com
