The Prologue walks out.  He\u2019s dressed different from the other actors.  He wears a robe or toga or something.<\/em><\/p>\n

PROLOGUE: In the town of Verona, there are two families that don\u2019t like each other.  Anyway, two lovers kill themselves and by doing so, they teach an important lesson to their parents.  And\u2026that\u2019s what this play is about.  If you pay attention, we think you\u2019ll like it!<\/p>\n

The Prologue leaves and two petty thugs, Sam and Greg enter.  They\u2019re blinged out.<\/em><\/p>\n

SAM: I\u2019m not gonna be a gofer!<\/p>\n

GREG: No, because then you\u2019d have to live underground.<\/p>\n

SAM: Oh, snaaaaaap.<\/p>\n

GREG: The only thing I hate more than living underground is that damn Montie Gang!<\/p>\n

SAM: Damn straight.  I\u2019d totally mess \u2018em up if we came across any of them.<\/p>\n

GREG: Well, they ain\u2019t ever seen a gun this big<\/p>\n

Greg draws a large revolver and shows it off.<\/em><\/p>\n

SAM: That\u2019s what she said!<\/p>\n

GREG: Oh, snaaaaaaap.  Oh, snap.  Seriously, here come some Monties.<\/p>\n

SAM: Let\u2019s flip \u2018em off as we go by, see if they take it.<\/p>\n

Abe and Caesar enter.  They\u2019re blinged out too, but in a different color.  Like red, instead of black or something.  As they pass, Sam flips them the bird.<\/em><\/p>\n

ABE: Did you just flip me off?<\/p>\n

SAM: I extended my middle finger.<\/p>\n

ABE: Did you extend it at me?<\/p>\n

GREG: Don\u2019t do it, dude!<\/p>\n

SAM: Uh, no.  I am not flipping you off, but I am flipping it.  Just, in general.  For practice.<\/p>\n

GREG: You wanna go?<\/p>\n

ABE: No, I don\u2019t wanna go.<\/p>\n

SAM: \u2018Cause if you do, I\u2019ll all about it.  I\u2019m as good for it as you are.<\/p>\n

ABE: Not better?<\/p>\n

GREG: Dude, say better!  Our gang leader is coming!<\/p>\n

SAM: Yeah, better!<\/p>\n

ABE: You lying mofo!<\/p>\n

GREG: Bring it on!<\/p>\n

They start to draw their guns and run behind cover.  Oh yeah \u2013 there should be cover here.  Some benches or bus stops or something.  Ben enters.<\/em><\/p>\n

BEN: Hey guys, what\u2019s going on \u2013 Oh, snaaaaaap.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
