Meaningless Problems

#33 A Bench in West London (performed by Thea Collings)

Tania’s twin sister Lydia has bought a memorial bench for their mum in the family’s local park. There’s just one problem: their mum is still very much alive (Lydia was unaware that memorial benches are exclusively for the dead). Cue a series of tributes from people who want to pay their respects, including a man whose connection to Tania and Lydia’s mum threatens to completely undermine who they thought she was.
 
Something to consider when reading/listening: 
 
How fragile is our understanding of ourselves and those close to us? Are we only ever one discovery away from reconsidering everything?
 
Dramatic Monologue - Comedy - Family  
 
A Bench in West London is an original short story by Doe Wilmann

#29 A Backup

Gina has a fantastic relationship with her seven-year-old son, James. The trouble is James is actually an adult and this seven-year-old is simply a perfect VR simulation of how he used to be. And adult James isn’t willing to share his mummy with anyone - even himself.

#28 Skipping Through Life

Faced with the prospect of making half his workforce redundant, Mr Pomeroy is offered the chance to skip the experience by travelling twelve hours into his own future. He accepts the offer and, twelve hours later, finds he still has all the memories of having experienced the day. So how is ‘time skipping’ any different from our normal experience of life?

How do you know your past isn’t simply a series of implanted memories? And would it make any difference if it were?

#24 The Light Without The Filter

Lee has a strong memory of his dad’s last moments on this earth. Only it’s not his memory, it’s his dad’s. Somehow he can picture, with perfect clarity, the final thing his dad saw before he passed away. Is this just a trick of Lee’s imagination or is it pointing towards something deeper?
