"Nothing Loves Me" Big Nose monologues in new published book about a Modern Cyrano

I completed a new update of my play "Big Nose (A Modern Cyrano)" which was badly in need of a rewrite. It has some excellent monologues in it including:

"Go Home" monologue for male http://freedrama.net/gohome.html

"Never Touch" monologue for male http://freedrama.net/nevertouch.html

"Die and Leave Thee" monologue for male http://freedrama.net/dieleavethee.html

"Hidden in the Night" monologue for female http://www.freedrama.net/juliet.html

And here is one more short monologue that we'll call...

"Nothing Loves Me"

by D. M. Larson

I never smelled anything so sweet before. And I know smells. My nose knows so much. A fine meal, the freshest flowers, the ripest fruit and even the subtle signs of an oncoming rain. But my nose knows so little about love. Because of my nose, I know nothing about it. I can love a good cup of coffee or the wonderful smell of spring, but nothing loves me back. I can love and appreciate so much more than everyone because of this glorious nose. But this nose keeps me from getting anything in return.

From Birmingham Jail stage play script featuring the words of Martin Luther King Jr

FROM BIRMINGHAM JAIL

by D. M. Larson

(using selections from Martin Luther King, Jr.)

Copyright © 2002

All Rights Reserved*

Cast of Characters

PRISONERS (parts can be doubled), GIRL, POLICE OFFICER, and DR. KING

Scene 1

(Lights come up on jail. Several criminals are in

their cells. They are scattered around the stage,

all in despair)

SONG: reflecting unhappy jail setting such as DEEP RIVER

(Piano still plays during following movement:

Enter police officer and DR. KING. One prison

sees them enter and watches as KING is placed in

solitary confinement. Prisoner 2113 is shocked at

seeing KING in jail. In pantomime, KING asked

OFFICER for pen and paper. OFFICER reluctantly

nods and exits. KING is alone and sits.)

[Note: each prisoner’s character has a number and

not a name]

2113

(Turns to other prisoner)

You know who I saw?

6322

What?

2113

I saw Dr. King.

5341

You saw who?

2113

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

3442

Here?

9112

No way. You're crazy. Dr. King wouldn't be here.

2113

But I saw him.

4306

I think you've been in here a little too long.

2113

But I swear I did.

8132

Give it a rest, will you.

2113

He's here. I'd know that man anywhere. So tall and proud. At least in pictures. He looks kind of sad now.

 

6322

I would be too if I were in jail.

(Prisoners laugh)

2113

Go ahead and laugh. I know what I saw. Laugh all you want. I'm not talking to you all anymore.

(2113 goes off alone)

(Piano still plays while OFFICER bring KING pen

and paper. Music fades when KING begins to write)

KING

"My dear fellow Clergymen, while confined here in the Birmingham city jail, I [remembered] your recent statement calling our present activities 'unwise and untimely.' Seldom, if ever, do I pause to answer criticism of my work and ideas...But since I feel that you are men of genuine good will...I would like to answer your statement..."

(KING goes silent. 2113 and 6322 are watching)

6322

What's he doing?

2113

Writing a letter I think.

6322

What for?

2133

Shhh. Listen.

KING

"I think I should give the reason for my being in Birmingham...Several months ago our local affiliate here in Birmingham invited us to be on call to engage in a nonviolent direct-action program...So I am here, along with several members of my staff, because we were invited here. Beyond this, I am in Birmingham because injustice is here...I cannot sit idly by in Atlanta and not be concerned about what happens in Birmingham. Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly affects all indirectly. Never again shall we afford to live with the narrow, provincial `outsider agitator' idea. Anyone who lives in the United States can never be considered an outsider anywhere in this country.
