Marry Me, Darling!

INTRODUCTION

Gwen is Roger's girlfriend. She first met him ten years ago, and they go out together two or three times a week. Now she would like to marry him, but he never talks about marrying. This evening he's coming to dinner at her sister's beautiful house. Perhaps he's going to ask her to marry him tonight!

CHARACTERS IN THE PLAY

Gwen, a woman of about 30

Roger, a man of about 30

PERFORMANCE NOTES

The scene is a big living room, with expensive-looking chairs around a coffee table. There is a mirror on the wall. On the table there are some cigarettes and a woman's bag. Gwen is wearing a gold watch.

You will need some cigarettes, a cup of coffee and a ring.

Gwen is looking at herself in the mirror.

GWEN

(To herself) Mmm, you look beautiful! But what does Roger think? (To the audience) Roger's my boyfriend, you see. He's very shy, you know, and very poor. But perhaps tonight he's going to ask me to marry him. He's coming here to dinner at my sister's house. Nice, isn't it?

She looks around her, smiling. The door opens.

GWEN

Ah, here he is!

Roger comes in.

ROGER

(Looking at her) Oh, Gwen!

GWEN

(Looking at him) Oh, Roger!

ROGER

(Moving nearer) Oh, Gwen!

GWEN

(Looking at him) Oh, Roger!

ROGER

(Moving nearer) Oh, Gwen!

GWEN

(Looking away) Oh, Roger! (To the audience) This is going to take all evening!

ROGER

Gwen, my love.

GWEN

(Smiling at him) Yes, Roger?

ROGER

You know, we first met a long time ago.

GWEN

Yes.

ROGER

Nine years ago, I think.

GWEN

Ten!

ROGER

Sorry, of course it's ten. (To the audience) This isn't easy. She's very rich and I'm very poor. (To Gwen) Well, after ten years, it's time...

GWEN

(Looking interested) Yes?

ROGER

It's time...

GWEN

Yes?

ROGER

To have a cigarette, I think. Have you got one, Gwen?

GWEN

Of course, darling.

ROGER

(To the audience) What a wonderful house she's got! Everything in here looks very expensive.

She takes a cigarette from the table and gives it to him.

GWEN

Here you are, darling.

ROGER

(Looking at her watch and speaking to the audience) What a beautiful gold watch!

GWEN

What did you say, darling?

ROGER

Oh, it's your hands, darling. They're wonderfully, wonderfully beautiful!

GWEN

(To the audience) What's new about my hands? (To Roger) Oh Roger, you say the nicest things!

ROGER

And your mouth, Gwen...

GWEN

(Coming nearer) Yes, Roger?

ROGER

It's a beautiful flower – Oh! (He moves quickly away, and Gwen puts her hand over her mouth.)

GWEN

(To the audience) I had some garlic for lunch! Roger, you're very handsome, you know.

ROGER

(Shyly) Oh, am I, Gwen?

GWEN

Oh yes. Your ears! I love your ears! They're very – interesting. (To the audience) And very big.

ROGER

Oh Gwen!

Oh Roger, you say the nicest things!'

GWEN

Your eyes! I love your eyes! They're very – blue. (To the audience) And very cold.

ROGER

Oh my love!

GWEN

And your hair! I love your hair! It's very – brown. (To the audience) There isn't much there.

ROGER

Oh darling! Well, after that I must say...

GWEN

Yes, Roger?

ROGER

I need a coffee. Could you get me one, Gwen?

GWEN

Of course, darling. (She goes out.)

ROGER

(To the audience) I don't like milk in my coffee. Is she going to remember?

Gwen comes back and gives a cup of coffee to Roger.

GWEN

I put some milk in it, darling. Is that all right?

ROGER

Mmm, wonderful, darling. Just like you!

GWEN

(Smiling shyly) Oh Roger!

ROGER

Well, darling, it was eleven years ago...

GWEN

Ten!

ROGER

Of course. Ten. Ten. Sorry! So it's about time...

GWEN

Yes, darling?

ROGER

It's about time...

GWEN

Yes, darling?

ROGER

To bring you a little something.

He takes a ring from his pocket.

GWEN

Oh Roger, a ring! How beautiful!

Oh Roger, a ring! How beautiful!'

ROGER

Do you like it? (To the audience) It was very expensive!

GWEN

Of course, darling. (To the audience) Oh dear, it looks so cheap. (To Roger). Roger, how exciting! Are you asking me...?

ROGER

Yes. (Taking her hand) Marry me, darling!

GWEN

Er, well, now you ask me, I don't know.

ROGER

You don't know?

GWEN

Well, this is all very sudden, Roger. I need some more time to think about it.

ROGER

(To the audience) Oh no! That's bad! I need her money. (To Gwen) How much time do you need?

GWEN

Well, I can give you an answer next week.

ROGER

But next week I'm going to New York!

GWEN

New York! How exciting!

ROGER

It's only for work, you know. (To the audience) Of course, Susie's going to be there! I always see her when I go to New York! (To Gwen) Oh Gwen! Please give me an answer before I leave!

GWEN

You see, Roger, you need to change a lot, before I can marry you.

ROGER

Change? Me? Change? But how?

GWEN

Well, to begin with, you must stop smoking!

ROGER

(Looking at his cigarette) Stop smoking?

GWEN

And you must stop drinking coffee!

ROGER

(Looking at his coffee) Stop drinking coffee?

GWEN

And you must stop going to New York, too!

ROGER

Stop going to New York? (To the audience) Does she know about Susie? Oh dear!

GWEN

So, Roger, what do you think? Can you change?

ROGER

What can I say, Gwen? I need you. (To the audience) And I need her money! (To Gwen) I'm going to stop smoking. And drinking coffee. And going to New York. (To the audience) Sorry, Susie!

GWEN

All right, Roger. I can give you my answer here and now. My answer is yes!

ROGER

Oh Gwen, darling!

GWEN

Oh Roger! (They kiss.)

ROGER

(To the audience) Now I needn't think about money any more! I'm going to have lots of money, my darling wife's money! (Laughing)

GWEN

(To the audience) Roger doesn't know this, but I'm not rich at all! I like expensive things, but I haven't got much money. When I tell him, what's he going to say?(Laughing)

They go out, hand in hand and smiling happily at each other.
