PUNCH AND JUDY

A Tragical Drama for Toys in One Act

A note on the production: As there are never more than two puppets on the stage at one time, one performer can do the whole show. The plot of the Punch drama is always pretty much the same, but the dialogue varies according to the taste and invention of the performer. You don’t have to use the lines given here. Each of the exchanges can be drawn out as long as you wish it and the audience enjoys it. Punch has always been more cheerfully nonsensical than witty, so don’t be afraid to slip in any silly answer or addlepated verse that pops to mind.

Curtain opens. Punch discovered, peering at audience.
