untitled (Life in the Fast Lane)

The play is about a man going through different moments in his daily life. In every scene in the play the man has a simple and bleak look in his eyes. The camera is focused on him, he does not move but the background of every different situation does. The play is about not having any free time to relax.

(Man lying in bed with his alarm clock going off)

(Man standing still brushing his teeth)

(Man eating breakfast alone at the table)

(Man being kissed goodbye bye his wife as he is about to leave for work)

(Man driving to work as the world passes him by)

(Man sitting at a cubicle, lifeless as the background moves rapidly behind him)

(Man eating lunch with his bickering coworkers)

(Man standing in a crowded elevator)

(Man waiting to cross the busy city street)

(Man sitting in Laundromat, waiting for his laundry)

(Man waiting in line at the grocery store)

(Man back in car returning home)

(Man checking his email)

(Man cooking dinner for him and his wife)

(Man eating dinner with his wife)

(Man doing the dishes)

(Man opening the front door to invite guests in)

(Man playing cards with guests)

(Man holding trash bag for his wife while they clean up the mess made by the guests)

(Man showering)

(Man lying in bed as his wife cuddles with his arm. While still in bed, the man holds up a small white sign that reads, “Life in the Fast Lane… Is it worth it?”)
