Fragment of Kingdom

The third 100W microplay in the current season of Kicking K’s work.

Kicking K

KAREN, in dishevelled hen night outfit, stumbles into woodland glade.

Throws up.

Her phone ringing.

She finds it, presses to answer – and places on a tree stump.

GEORGE: &&& Karen?
&
&
Karen it’s George. Karen?
&
&
What are you angry at me? Where are you?
&
&
Your mum called the police. They’re looking for you.
&
&
Did you have a row with the girls?
&
&
Karen?
&
&
If that’s not Karen. If this is someone else.
&
&
If you’ve got Karen.
&
&
You sick fuck it was her hen night.
&
&
I will fucking break you open.
&
&
You hear me?
&
&
I will be the last thing you ever see.

Exit KAREN.
