Play of the Day by Phil Drabble

 

It is Him

 

The scene: The two riders gathered speed, dust and small shiny shells they found on the beach when the tide went out. As they neighed with a halt, the bigger of the smaller got off his steed, fed it a polo and patted his head. The hobby horse didn’t stir but fell where it was dropped. The smaller of the bigger did the same, except he gave his a doughnut.

 

Bigger of the smaller: Have you seen a perty young damsel pass this way? Goes by the name of Stone, Sharon Stone.

 

The three hermaphrodites, who were in fact mel&Colly, who in turn turned out to be that pretty young thing on Brighton Beach and her dog looked anxiously at Jimi and fool who were busy arguing that to stitch one and to pearl one was not the same as Colly’s Mr. Whippy he’d just dropped under the knitting needle lodged in the willowing branch of the banyon tree. Mid sentence they turned to the trapeze artist who was really the bearded lady, who in fact turned out to be the pretty young’s girl’s dog, Colly, from Brighton beach and said in unison…

 

Jimi & fool: It’s you… your Stone

 

Sharon Stone: Yeah, what of it, I aint done nothing, I’m free I tell you, I’m stone free, to do what I please, yeah, stone free, to ride the breeze

 

Smaller of the bigger: Well, I’m sorry to say this miss but you aint gathering no moss anymore…

 

SS: How do you know cowboy, and anyhow, that was a long time ago, plus I’m blonde, so you can’t really see it too well in the sunlight…

 

Sotb: No Maam, I mean you’re needed in heaven

 

What? What? What? What? What? What? What? Everyone asked, except the bearded lady who exclaimed she was Stone’s double and just sniggered muttering something about royalties.

 

Narrator: What? Does this mean? Who is needed in heaven? Is Jimi’s time up or is Sharon really him? Tune in next week, whilst I relax to with the corner of my conical hat. But first the quiz:
