(DOWNLOAD PDF HERE)
SARAH sits at a bar with her face on the bar.
There are 7 or 8 empty glasses of various sizes around her.
SARAH is still as a rock.
BARTENDER enters and pokes SARAH.
She moves around a bit and pops up.
SARAH: What?
BARTENDER: Hey.
SARAH: What?
BARTENDER: Ummm…
SARAH: What?
BARTENDER: Do you think you have a problem?
SARAH: What?
BARTENDER: Like a… drinking problem?
SARAH: What?
BARTENDER: Do you think you have a drinking problem?
SARAH: Do I think I have a drinking problem?
BARTENDER: Yes. You are here every day and you get like… this. Everyday.
SARAH: No.
BARTENDER: What do you mean, no? I serve you drinks everyday until –
SARAH: No I do not have a drinking problem.
BARTENDER: … You don’t think you have a drinking problem?
SARAH: It’s not a problem because it makes me fucking happy.
SARAH gives the BARTENDER the middle fingers and faceplants back on the bar.
BARTENDER shakes their head and begins to exit.
BARTENDER: I moved to New York for this?
Blackout.
END OF PLAY.
