Cupboard Monster - A Play originally in three Acts.

Act 1 Scene 1

She opens her cupboard. She opens her eyes wider and stares. She finds something that might work. She deftly places one hand on the pile and pulls out that something. Glee. It works.

Act 1 Scene 2

She opens her cupboard. She finds something that might work. She deftly places one hand on the pile and pulls out that something. No, it doesn’t work. Its crumpled. She repeats the act. No luck again.

And again.

And again.

Darn I’m late.

Act 1 Scene 3

She opens her cupboard. She tries to find something that might work. She opens her eyes wider and wider...

I’m going to get late.

Act 2 Scene 1

She opens her cupboard and gloats. Neatly stacked piles- freshly ironed. She pulls out a purple from between the stacks, the stack dances. She re-arranges the stack neatly in place.

She gloats some more.

Act 2 Scene 2

She opens her cupboard and lets out a sigh of relief. Thank goodness for this; I am already running late. She pulls out something from between the stack. The stack dances and falls. Shucks! Later.

Act 2 Scene 3

She opens her cupboard. She picks out something from the disheveled pile- no, it’s not cool- another- nope- another pile and another- why do I buy such clothes anyway?

She opens her cupboard. She stares at the cupboard. She concentrates- where is “that”? Only “that” and nothing else. Tastes victory after a while. All others lie dead.

She opens her cupboard. Lucky day or what? The right thing is right in front of her eyes. But, oh! Where is the other part of it? The hunt begins.

Not the lucky day.

Act 3 Scene 3

She opens her cupboard. She starts pulling out one crumpled masterpiece after the other. Slowly the pile at the floor mounts. She wonders…

She frantically dives her hands into the heap for the treasure cloth- please god please.

Act 3 Scene 5

She opens her cupboard. She looks into the cupboard. She swipes everything out on the floor. She stomps on the scattered heap. F**k you!
