The Swingset

by Peter B. Sonenstein

When Betsy walks into Ali's lot full of used children's playsets, he quickly goes about trying to sell her one. But her real reason for being there is far more serious. This short piece, written as part of a series to be performed in a rooftop playground in Greenwich Village, brings out both the humor and humanity in the character's confrontation.
