A Short Play about the Daily Commute Starring Nine Fish

Fish 1: Ugh, I’m going to be late for that meeting. On the other hand, who cares?

Fish 2: Why is this subway stopping here? I love how the “local” is faster than the “express.”

Fish 3: Srsly, what do you think the MTA does with all of its money?

Fish 4: Could they even build a subway now?

Fish 5: I hate when they ask us to please be patient. As if we have a choice.

Fish 6: Why is that crazy person staring at me?

Fish 7: This book is so good, I hope I don’t miss my stop! (Ppl who read kindles on the subway look pretty dumb, actually?)

Fish 8: Oh great, someone ranting about God. Instant headache.

Fish 9: I wish I lived in the Virgin Islands.
