Went to a playwriting 2.5 hour course at Liverpool Everyman Theatre Sat 18th June. It was quite inspiring and this was a piece from choosing an object on a table and his instruction there. Everyone who wanted to got their chance to act their play out on stage to the other delegates Thanks to Lawrence Wilson Present day,in the front room of Kevin's house twin brother Lawrence, also aged 33 (by some co-incidence) has called unexpectedly and walked straight in despite Kevin smaller weaker trying to stop him)
Lawrence: (pointing to wall)This, this, all the time you had it, you told me you never told me you had it Kevin: No I never Lawrence: You've been keeping this from me, how long have you had it? Kevin:Since just after she died Lawrence:I bet you didn't even wait for her to get cold Kevin: She wanted me to have it Lawrence:Oh yeah, when did she tell you that? Kevin: Just before she died Lawrence:That's rather convenient, was anybody else there? Kevin:Yes, Uncle Alby Lawrence:Figures. He's dead too,I want it (reaching up to the wall and pushing on the securing bracket) Kevin:Leave it Lawrence:Or what? What you gonna do about it? (turns to Kevin, pushes him in chest) Kevin: (takes a step back, stuttering) y, you you leave it alone Lawrence:You gonna stop me? (hands on hips belligerent, staring Kevin down) Kevin: (meekly) Perhaps we can share it Lawrence:Like what, half each, (shouting now) cut it down the middle (louder) are you crazy? Kevin:(not meeting Lawrence's bulging eye stare)No, what I meant was you have it weekends, I have it weekdays?
Lawrence:(still loud, laughs) Ha, like you do with your kids? Kevin:(indignant) That's a cheap shot, you know Cathy wants full custody now. I'm not going to be able to even write to them if she gets her way Lawrence:Perhaps you should have thought about that before you took up with that trollop from the Co-Op Kevin: (rising to full non impressive height) She's not a trollop Lawrence:Whatever, ... you gonna give me this clock ? Kevin: Mum wanted me to have it, you know why Lawrence:Of course, you were the suck up Kevin: You know that's not true, I tried harder, all you've ever known is how to break things, how to hurt Lawrence:(gently) Would it help if I said I was sorry? Kevin: It would be a start (he extends his hand to shake)
