The Resignation

by Daniel Guyton

A monologue about a nebbishy guy deciding to resign from his job because his boss is a real jerk. However, as you read the monologue, you realize that the boss might not be the problem...

"I watched the show on Friday, and the audience responded great to 'The Resignation', the actor was interrupted with laughter a few times and it ended with a long clap." (Irena Saric, Riverside Theatre, 2016)
