Strings

by J. Merrill Motz

Jen sits alone at a bar, indecisive about her next drink. Tony would like to get to know her better. Jen has no interest in talking to Tony. Good thing Tony brought backup: his ultimate wingman, the Big Bad Wolf...Puppet. Now Jen is talking...but not to Tony, just to the Wolf Puppet. Nice pick, Tony.

Character Information

1 M, 1 W, 1 P(uppet)
JEN, F, 20s
TONY, M, 20s
MR. WOLF, P(uppet), voiced by TONY
NOTE
It's totally cool if TONY is a terrible ventriloquist. Might be funnier, actually. But I got no beef if the dude's a pro about it, so long as the puppet is funny. Remember, above all, MAKE THE PUPPET FUNNY.

Mr. Wolf

Mr. Wolf MUST be a WOLF PUPPET. Doesn't need to be a very GOOD wolf puppet, but he must at least look MOSTLY like a wolf.
