TEN MINUTE PLAY (excerpt only - published work) A rubber duck, a toy submarine, a washcloth and a sponge face an existential crisis when they discover they are afraid of water - more than that, they are completely perplexed by it, and by their individual reactions to it. Rubber Duckie's ability to float above the others ("Well, I have natural duckness - it's a gift"), leads to argument and accusations, ultimately threatening to tear the group apart - but Rubber Duckie also conceals a dark secret - one that must squeak out in the end.

"Arthur M. Jolly's piece began as a seemingly one-dimensional skit about a Rubber Ducky, Sponge, Submarine and Washcloth traumatized by a small child, but quickly transformed into existential comedy and comic religious allegory." - Pittsburgh City paper
