Clarisse and Larmon by Deb Margolin

CHARACTER BREAKDOWN: 2M, 1F
Clarisse: Middle-aged. Wife to Larmon. A simple woman who learns of her son's untimely demise.
Larmon: Middle-aged. Husband to Clarisse. A simple man who learns of his son's untimely demise.
Soldier: A young man given the task of returning the remains of a young soldier.

PLOT SUMMARY:
Setting: A small green room, not unlike an interrogation room. In the center sits a nondescript wooden table.

A comedy.

Clarisse and Larmon sit side by side staring at a picture provided by the soldier. The photo is of a leg: all that remains of their son. Once the soldier is gone the couple discuss there son and all the things he used to do with his leg. This spirals into a discussion of verbs named after body parts, a deal in which Larmon will pay Clarisse $100 for every true things she says about her son, and resolving in Clarisse shoving the photo of her sons leg into her underwear to "return him back to where he came from."

Absurd. But has some potential for a few good laughs.
