Synopsis

IMAGES is a brief examination of how difficult it can be for human beings to see ourselves as others see us and, conversely, how we may come to perceive the inner youth and beauty of those around us.  In this one-act play, the middle-aged principals, who still see themselves as young and attractive, manage to look past one another’s aging physical appearance and begin to see and understand the vibrant, complex, young and attractive truth within.

The Set...
A coffee shop; 2 tables/2chairs each w/settings, cream, sugar, etc; optional upstage station with coffee pots, cups, etc.

Costumes...
Contemporary. May choose to make Bobby and Suzie’s costuming similar to Robert and Susan’s, only more youthful.

Props...
Robert: Newspaper, coffee, pen
Susan: Hardbound book, tea
Miscellaneous: Coffee shop settings (cream, sugar, extra tea cup…)
