| A mime about taking action.
Needsby Debra Bruch
6 people needed:
NEEDED: 4 baby bottles table and 2 chairs
Two people are sitting at a table. They have two baby bottles. Three people as babies are sitting on the floor. The babies start to cry. A woman enters with two bottles and gives the bottles to two of the babies. Those two stop crying, but the one without continues. The woman searches the area for another bottle in vain. One person at the table rises and begins to cross to the baby to give the baby his bottle, but the other person at the table rises, stops him, and sits him back down. The baby continues to cry and the woman continues to search. Finally, the person at the table rises again to give his bottle, and the other person tries to stop him. But he says no to the other person and gives the crying baby his bottle anyway, who then stops crying. He then crosses to the woman. They cross to the babies, help them stand and exit all together. The person at the table is now alone. He looks around himself and is ashamed. The person stands, crosses to center stage, places the bottle on the floor, and exits.
