| Props: | "Telephone" made from 2 Red Solo Cups, connected by a chain of pencil balloons knotted together. |
| Notes: | The "Telephone" should have enough balloons tied between the cups to spring back at Radio, but not be too tight. Say, 8 or so balloons |
| Notes: | Look up raspberry, or "bronx cheer" for the history |
Radio: (coming back up onto the stage) Ashes! Ashes! You may have an iPad, but I got a new phone!
Ashes: Really? Is it the new iPhone?
Radio: No.
Ashes: Oh, then it's an Android phone. You know, "Droid!"
Radio: (Mimicing Obi Wan Kenobi) These are not the droids your are looking for. No, it's even better than a Droid!
Ashes: Better than a droid? Well then, what kind of phone is it?
Radio: It's my Pffffft phone.
Ashes: A Pffffft phone?
Radio: A Pffffft phone.
Ashes: A Pffffft phone?
Radio: You know, a Pffffft phone - A Raspberry! It's one level better than a Blackberry.
Radio hands Ashes one end of the "telephone.
Radio: Want to see how it works?
Ashes: (looks the phone over closely) I want to see IF it works.
Radio: Here, you take this end and stand over there. I'll go over there and say "Ring, Ring, It's for you" and you say "Let me have it."
Ashes: OK.
Radio walks across the stage and stretches the ballons between the cups
Radio: Ring, Ring. It's for you.
Ashes: (walks back towards Radio) Hey, Radio, your phone is ringing!
Radio: No, no, no. You stay over there, I stay over here. I say "Ring, Ring. It's for you." And you say "Let me have it."
Ashes: Oh, OK. Gotcha.
Radio stretches the balloons again
Radio: Ring, Ring. It's for you.
Ashes: Hey Radio, we need to get you a better ring tone.
Radio: (getting madder) No, no, no! I say "Ring, Ring. It's for you." You say "Let Me Have It."
Ashes: OK, gotcha.
Radio stretches the balloons again
Radio: Ring, Ring. It's for you.
Ashes: (hesitates a moment like he's trying to remember) What was I supposed to say?
Radio: (exasperated) Let Me Have It!
Ashes: OK...
Ashes lets go of his end of the "telephone" and it snaps back and hits Radio. Radio starts to chase Ashes.
Ashes: (points behind Radio) Squirrel!
Radio is distracted and looks back. as both exit the stage
