Barmen Monologue
"So, what'll it be?" the barmen asks.
"Scotch on the rocks, please." A small, dimly lit tavern, filled with about two dozen guys. You're seated up at the front counter in a comfortable chair, watching people buzzing and swinging around tables, booths and pool tables. You take off your glasses for a few seconds to wipe off a couple of blemishes from your lenses, hearing the firm tink of a glass in your blurred peripherals as your drink is fallen down in front of you. Releasing a small thanks as you hide your eyes behind a pair of specs, you proceed to take a few delightful sips. The scotch has that nice, smoky bite you're slowly getting used to, and the sound of chunky ice cubes clinking up against the glass's interior is already enough.

You finish the scotch in the shadows of the bar's edges, and right before your glass is reduced to nothing but a few shrunken cubes of ice, you glance out the window to the sidewalk. You notice someone pull up to the bar on a slick black chopper. A burly yet handsome woman cooked by the hot LA sun, shrouded in your typical biker getup and with a full head of brown hair on top of it all. The stunner dismounts her pride and joy and enters, presence as heavy as her muscles must be. She strolls up to the counter and pulls a picture from her jacket, flashing the barkeep with it.

    Slow keys of the piano are being heard. Out of the dark, a silhouette of HAPPY emerges, carrying a suitcase and a bouquet of cheap flowers. As he approaches a middle of the stage, we see the white tiles of the New York metro behind him. He doesn't move any further, but puts the suitcase and the bouquet on the ground and stands with a hazy look focused on whatever that is in front of him. From the other side, a COLLEAGUE appears.…

    A Discourse by Three Drunkards on Government by Nakae Chomin explores the various values and ideas of three men, in regards to the future of Japan. This trio consists of the Gentleman, who enjoys Western ideals; the Champion, who prefers traditional Japanese values; and Master Nankai, a sage who enjoys to drink and talk politics among others. This story uses these characters, primarily the Gentlemen and the Champion, to represent political views that were present in Japan during the Meiji Period. Of the many themes discussed among them is the idea of novelty versus nostalgia, which grew into a central argument. “Novelty” or new, in this case, represents the Western influence that was entering Japan at the time; these ideas became popular with…
