The Important Meeting

Scene: Six to eight players sit around a table scattered with papers, a couple of water glasses, etc. They

mime a discussion, some jotting down notes, etc.

Enter the narrator, outfitted as a news reporter. In confidential tones, the reporter explains that this is an

important meeting of the group committee, gathered on this occasion to make some very important decisions.

As the narrator says something like, "Let's see if we can get a bit closer to hear how things are going", the group

at the table add some mumbling and unintelligible arguing to their mime. Occasionally, they punctuate the din with

outbursts such as, "No, no!"; "I disagree!"; "That's better"; "No way!"; "That might work" and the like.

Finally, the hubbub dies, the group settles back. One member stands and announces, "Then it's decided; a

12-slice pizza with olives, mushrooms, lots of cheese, but hold the pepperoni."

All: Agreed!
