A scratch night play in one act for one actor and one actress.

Do I know
you?
April and Anthony enter from opposite sides
of the stage as they draw close they catch eyes and think they know each other
immediately, but then a moment of doubt creeps in.
ANTONY [with enthusiasm]. Hey!
APRIL [responding in kind]. Hey!
There is a moment of credulity
ANTONY [communicating with his hands]. I thought we…?
APRIL. I thought we…
ANTONY. But we don’t.
APRIL. No, we don’t…
ANTONY. Well I’m Antony. [He presents his hand]
APRIL. I’m April…
They shake.
ANTONY. So next time we will.
He smiles.
APRIL. Next time we will.
They part.
