Looking For Play: Two Men Trapped in an Exhibit
I’ve been looking for this 10-minute play I saw in College for over 7 years! Google is useless (keeps recommending The Zoo Story).
——
Synopsis: Guy 1 is pushed into exhibit. He’s freaking out b/c he’s trapped. Guy 2 says something like “relax, it is what it is.”
They discuss human nature and their predicament throughout the play. Guy 1 yells at the onlookers at one point, judging them for watching them.
More time passes, Guy 2 gets removed b/c he’s sick or old. Guy 1 yells for them to leave him alone. Guy 2 is content with his fate.
More time passes, Guy 3 gets pushed into exhibit. He’s freaking out. Guy 1 says something like “relax, it is what it is”, completing the cycle.

This play has stuck with me all these years later and I really want to produce it but I just can’t find it!
Does anyone recognize it? Thank you in advance!!
