Time Itself

- comedy, 2m 2f + optional extras, flexible set

Barry is clearing his deceased mother's effects from their attic when he discovers an old parchment bearing the inscription "Whoever holds the open parchment holds time itself". And that's what it does - when he unfolds it, time stops. Barry is heading for fun and wealth and a peaceful life, until the breeze plays a fateful hand.

Note that this play is part of an anthology with the imaginative title Three Chort Plays by Ian Hornby - Clicks, Fantasy and Time Itself. If you're interested and don't want the other two, please contact me and I'll email you the script free of charge.
