Act One 14A Devonshire Street, Early One Evening, April 1985 The action is set entirely in the living room of the first floor flat at the above address. There are five exits from this room; a door UR leads into the bedroom a door UL leads into the kitchen, a door UCL leads to the hall. A second bedroom and the bathroom are off this hall, which leads to the front door. A window CR overlooks the garden and an entrance DL opens onto a small balcony containing a garden chair and small table. There are two cupboards US just to R of C. There are five pieces of furniture in this room; two armchairs CL and CR, a sofa just L of C, a coffee table in front of the sofa (with magazines on it and two bottles of sherry underneath) and a small table against the US wall with a table-cloth vase of flowers’ an answer-machine and a telephone. There is a doorbell on the US wall with cables leading into the wall towards the front door. The coffee table is strewn with gardening and ladies’ magazines as well as two sets of car-keys. Mike and Claire are in their forties and are finding life rather humdrum now that the children have all left home. They have both joined different evening classes in an endeavour to spice up their lives. Mike has joined a tennis group and Claire has started Judo, both on the same night - tonight. The spice takes the form of Sandra, a fit and attractive blonde, whom Mike has met at tennis and Geoff, a rather ordinary guy who, like Claire, has taken up judo. Claire sits reading a magazine. Enter Mike, in his tennis gear. CLAIRE Are you still here, darling? I thought you’d already gone to tennis. MIKE As you can see, I haven’t. I’m not even sure I’ve got the energy tonight. CLAIRE Oh, come on honey, isn’t it mixed doubles today? MIKE Yes, but what difference does that make? CLAIRE Well, doesn’t the thought of those fit young girls in short white skirts make you raring to go? MIKE I beg your pardon? CLAIRE Well, you know…… MIKE (Acting decorously) No, I do not know! I can’t say I’ve noticed any fit girls at tennis. CLAIRE (Sniggering violently) My goodness, then you must be getting short-sighted in middle age. MIKE I certainly am not! I can read newspaper print at a hundred yards. CLAIRE Can you indeed! Then read this paragraph to me. (Holding up the magazine and indicating the paragraph.) MIKE (Seriously flustered) I…I…well…. um….ah….. CLAIRE There you are, you see; you can’t read it, can you? MIKE It’s the italic font ……. and ….. and the green background. You know I’m colour blind to red and green. CLAIRE Oh, the crosses men have to bear! MIKE Now that’s unfair; you know that I’m suffering from arthritis and lumbago and a trapped….. CLAIRE I know I have to listen to the same excuses every Friday night. That doesn’t mean it’s true. MIKE Now just look here….. (ponders) Anyway, what about the men at your Judo club? They can’t be wimps can they? I mean it’s not a tiddlywinks club. CLAIRE My mind is totally focused on the judo moves, as it happens. I have no time to notice the men. MIKE What, even when they grab you around the waist, throw you to the floor and pin you down? (He gestures and she notices his hand.) CLAIRE Mike, you’re not wearing your wedding ring. Why have you taken it off? MIKE I… I…. well, you know, it rubs against the racquet when I play. CLAIRE But you’re right handed and you wear your wedding ring on the left. MIKE What is this, the Spanish Inquisition? CLAIRE (Looks at her watch) Goodness, is that the time? I must get changed - and you must go, or you’ll be late. MIKE Goodbye dear; back about eleven. (blows her a kiss and exits.) CLAIRE (Giving a hefty sigh as the front door slams) Goodbye, darling. Don’t have a fatal accident on the way. Now, where was I? Oh, yes, about to get changed. (She hums to herself as she exits R to the bedroom.) (The telephone rings but we hear Claire singing. Clearly she has not heard the phone. The answer-machine cuts in.) MACHINE We are sorry we are unable to take your call at the moment. Please leave a message after the tone and we will call you as soon as possible. (tone) SANDRA (On the phone, in a sexy voice) Hello, Mike, Sandra here. I hope you haven’t left yet. I’ve just arrived at the club and it’s flooded - so tennis is off. Please come down to the club and pick me up anyway. I would like to suggest some alternative …. extra-curricular activity, as we have a free evening. Perhaps we could go to your place? Bye for now. (There is a kissing sound then a click as she rings off. Noises off - Mike driving away.) (Enter Claire, still singing, and now dressed in judo gear.)
