Sample of script:

Scene opens as both actresses enter stage left. They begin conversing as soon as they step on to the stage, then continue talking as they take their place at center stage.

Carrie: I am telling you, Deb, this guy is the one!

Deb: Well, I am happy for you, Carrie. I really am.

Carrie: Isn’t it wonderful? I have finally found someone talk with, to go for walks with, and to go for long car rides with!

Deb: Sounds like Skipper’s the one for you!

Carrie, confused: Skipper? Skipper’s my new collie that I just got from the shelter!

Deb: Yeah, aren’t we talking about your dog?

Carrie, upset: No! We most certainly are not talking about my new dog! I was talking about my new boyfriend!

Deb, mocking: Right, your new boyfriend. What was his name again?

Carrie: I’ve told you a million times! His name is Dirk!

Deb, aside: I would have preferred Skipper, if it were me!

Carrie: What did you say?

Deb: Oh, nothing! Tell me more about Dirt!

Carrie, frustrated: That’s Dirk! Not Dirt!

Deb, chuckling: Sorry!

Carrie: Anyway, he is just wonderful! Why just last week we went to that new movie I was talking about.

Deb: But, I thought you said you saw that movie alone.

Carrie: Oh, yes, I saw it alone. There was just a little mix-up in the ticket line and Dirk didn’t hear me say that I had bought a ticket to Gardens of Tomorrow so he bought a ticket to Biker Rumble.

Deb: Well I’m sure they would have changed your ticket if you asked. What did Dirk say about it?

Carrie: Well, funniest thing. When I tried to tell him that we wouldn’t be in the same movie, he just kept walking toward his theatre as if he didn’t hear me.

Carrie: Well, funniest thing. When I tried to tell him that we wouldn’t be in the same movie, he just kept walking toward his theatre as if he didn’t hear me.

Deb: Again, he didn’t hear you.

Carrie: Poor guy. I think it’s an inner ear thing.

Deb, sarcastic: Yeah, that’s it. Well, did you check out that new coffee shop afterwards?

Carrie: I sure did! It was so busy that I waited in line for 45 minutes before they called ‘table for one’.

Deb: A table for one? Let me guess – Dirk didn’t hear that you wanted to go there.

Carrie: Oh no, that’s not it at all. After I waited in line for 45 minutes, he remembered that he had plans already and headed off to that new restaurant on 4th avenue.

Deb: He left you there in line all by yourself?

Carrie: It wasn’t like that at all! This is how sweet he is - he ran down the street and brought me back a bus ticket, just so he knew I would have a ride home. What a romantic!

Deb, sarcastic: Incredible. Do you plan on hearing from him again?

Carrie: I am expecting a call any day now.

Deb: If you are so anxious about him, why don’t you call him?

Carrie: Funniest thing! He was saying that his phone won’t accept calls from 431 numbers, and . . .

Deb, interrupting: Let me guess – you have a 431 number?
