Featured Monologue – The Void
GEORGE: Went for my yearly checkup. Wasn’t expecting anything, the usual, sugar’s too low or too high, gain five pounds, get more vitamin D – these things fluctuate, right? But today I was told something significant …something entirely, remarkably different.
(beat) Do you want to know what the doctor said?
Tiana nods.
Said, are you ready? Said, I was going to live forever. Believe that? Dead serious. Said I have no ailments, I’m in perfect health, and I’m never ever going to die. That my fluctuations are unusually limited and will always remain the same. Normal. After I laughed, the doctor turned to me and asked what I found funny. He wasn’t joking. I said, “It’s impossible for me to live forever.” And he said, I have a rare condition. He said, my cells don’t die, and I will appear as I am now for all eternity because my biology is always going to rejuvenate as a healthy living organism, without degeneration. (beat) He gave me this pamphlet, so I could educate myself about my condition. There’s this place upstate where I can attend group sessions and workshops to prepare for living forever. There are other people like me out there in this world. I never knew this even existed, until today. I didn’t know something like this could ever happen to me.
