Paper Towels

by Daniel Guyton

1M. Monologue (1 min), A petty thief explains how he lost his teaching job in this comedic-dramatic monologue.

"Stealing paper towels may seem like a victimless crime, but if it's all you've got, you hit it with the full force of the law." (Bob Smith, Working Title Playwrights, 2015)

    I love nothing more than a small, well-formed, entertaining piece of writing and Daniel Guyton ticks all the boxes with this very amusing, offbeat story of 'innocent' theft. How many people haven't 'acquired' pens, pencils, paperclips....from the workplace? The result goes to show how in just a minute a story can be full told. A joy.
