A play After the sea we will see(1)

The year is still 2050
Nothing change
Things got worse

And
From the far depth his voice taking drastic decision:

Things will change, this will be the last, after this we suffer no more, no more pain, this flood is for a reason, the water will clean what must be cleaned, we will be balanced, our troubles will be solved, there will be no more wars, very soon the door will open and the guards will welcome us.

We lost the battle; the years of fighting and resistance have weakened our flesh and souls. Our women, our children and the ancient ones, we lost a lot of them, the land is burning with its contains, nothing is left for us, except the anger and a great desire for revenge, our God does not allow us to destroy, and we can not fight any more, The God is not going to come down here to solve our things, The God armed us with brains, we have no reason to stay here, soon the water will cover every thing, we have to move quickly, if the mountain does not want to come to us we still have the fire we can move to it. Throw yourselves in the water, the GOD will receive us the other side, if you reached before me, tell him, I will not be late..

we can hear them but we can not see them

The first one: may be he does not want to wake up again, may be he is dreaming.

The second one: may be he is not here any more, we lost him.

The third: may be somewhere, he left his body behind.

The fourth: may be better, you wake him up, I can not, and you may succeed.

For many hours, these sentences moved from one mouth to the other, the four of them do not know what to do; they are standing in front of the door, trying to get in.

Does the door need a key?

The soul of their friend is not any more like theirs; it refuses to enter the heaven and it can not go back to the hell, his soul is in a limbo place.


Sunshine: we are confused, we do not know what to do, and we do not know if we are alive or dead.

Nabtio: what do you mean? I do not understand, the language we speak is deferent to our, every thing is deferent here.

Sabto: let us talk to them, we can talk to the guards

Manrato: you mean we can use the number and the machine to contact with them as they said.

[Sabto uses the phone]

Sabto: hello, Do you hear me? We we have a problem.

[someone on the other side of the phone]

Someone: yes, I do. How can I help you, sir?

Sabto: yes,we need your help. My name is Sabto, we have a problem, our friend does not want to answer us.

Someone: What is wrong with him?

Sabto: He locked himself in the room, we can not get in, he does not answer our calling.

Someone: Do not worry I will send someone to help you.

Sabto:Are you God?

Someone:[laughing] oh dear, I'm not God Iam just an employee, do not worry , we will help you.

[Someone put the phone, Sabto carries on]

Sabto: hello!! hello!! [saying to the others:] he is not there anymore.

Sunshine: we will wait. The help will come.


first came the wind then the rain, the doors of the skies widely open, the homes and all what the human built melted to the ground, the animals and the trees swept away, so many things changed shapes, the place became a lake.
and the people, what happened to them?
the first wind took half of them, half of the other half flowed the flood, some ran to no where, the rest of them held to each others ..........

[HE stood up and shouted]

HE: to the sea, to the sea
the God is calling on us, throw yourselves in the water, The God will save you.
He ran towards the sea, the rest followed him to the water.
[when you lose your mind, you free your soul]
His dream when he was among the others was to live a love story; he said to himself:[my story will be different from the others stories, my story will be simple, without complications, except from the ones that love brings]

She is an ordinary girl, her life is easy, sometimes is boring, she live in a big flat not very far from the big city, somehow she works as a social worker and she has a big office. Her job brought to her boring life the lives of The Others [ the ones who live in the shadow of the big city]. Phone calls, she makes hundred of them every day; homeless, drugusers, jobseekers, depressed and many others enjoy hearing her special voice,which fall on them like a heavy and smooth drug, sometimes they come to see her and other many other times she goes looking for them, they see in her their lost hopes, and feel the kindness we all seek as living beings. She can not change their living or heal their wounds, but the energy she has can make them forget for a short time their miserable lives; she can makes them laugh.

A police man who was meditating near the sea, saw from a distant 4 or 5 naked bodied, he phoned for help immediately, in less than 7 minutes the help arrived, 6 police cars broke the silence of the place and three birds left their food and flew away, when the approximately dead bodies heard the wack and wack of the police cars; they started to move, they stood up, they shook hands and they kissed each others, when the police man saw this, he ran towards the coming help, the police cars stopped opposite to him, they talk to him and together they walk towards the moving bodies.

They are standing face to face, they look at each other, then

One police man: do you speak what I speak?

THE OTHERS: yes we do, sir.

Another police man: thanks to the heavens

THE OTHERS: THE HEAVEN< finally we arrived, he is right.
then:

Manrato: my name is Manrato,who are you?

One police man: MAN...What? How are we?
Who are you guys? aaaawhere did you come from?

Sabto:my name is Sabto, we came from the sea.this one is Sunshine and this one is Nabto [ pointing at his two other friends]

One police man: our plesure!!! and?

Sunshine: [ very sweetly ] we want you to take us to God.

[They all look at her at the same time, some laughted others looked upset, then the main one said:]

The head: listen to me, I am the head of this group, I do not know if you are speaking seriously. first we thought you were dead then we discovered you speak our language, there is something weird here,which I do not understand.I am very sure you need help, you must come with us and you need something to cover your bodies [he tells one of his team: go to the car and bring what they can use]

Manrato: Are you God?

The head:No, No, my sun I am not God I am A human being like you, you have to come with us, you need help.

Nabto: we do not need help we have to meet with him, he is waiting for us.

The head: As you want, come with us and you will see him.

[ they smile, they use what the police man gave them to cover their naked bodies and they follow The head to the waiting cars ]
