A LITTLE LOVE GOES A LONG WAY (A short monologue play)

by Glenn Alterman

One night, Helen, an unhappily married woman hears a gentle knocking at her door. When she opens the door she is shocked to see her new next door neighbor, Hal. The most shocking thing about Hal is that he’s less than two inches tall. Stuff happens.

    This is such a fun monologe. I love how sweet it is, how full of life the character is, and how vivid the language is. Nice work!
