Let’s let something else inspire us today!
Go outside and have a look around you. Notice things. People. Animals. Buildings. Let something that you see outside be the starting point of the play.
Maybe set it in the beautiful house you pass by on your way to work,
perhaps as you’re sitting on public transport, you overhear someone saying a random sentence. (Here’s one I picked up the other day “and I was doing the face the hippo was doing”),
maybe a bird lands by you and inspires a poetic ‘ode to a tit’ monologue.
If you’re not planning on leaving the house today, maybe look out the window (if you have one) or maybe turn the TV on for a few minutes (if you have one) or browse the internet (if you… hold on… you definitely have one or you won’t be getting this)
Just be sure not to watch the news. We don’t want the news accidentally inspiring you or you might end up writing about wars or soldiers or something like that. And who wants to write about such a boring and cliched topic, eh?
And as yesterday’s challenge was set in your hometown, today take it as far away as possible. Maybe a different country – or maybe a different planet – or maybe a different universe …
If you add yourself as a character in the play – you will get bonus points! And points mean prizes!
(if by prizes you mean absolutely nothing, obviously)
