| This is a play by 3 actors, they are playing the biblical figures of Jesus, Peter and John. Jesus is played by himself, Peter is played by Arnold Schwarzenegger and John is played by a dog. They struggle to stay in character. The scene stars with the 3 of them walking in a narrow staircase. Jesus let out a thunderous fart. --- Peter: Jesus, what was that? Jesus: Sorry, Peter, I have been fasting for 40 days and I am a bit gassy. John (barking): Woof, woof, woof! Peter: John, stop barking! This is not the time for that. We are supposed to be walking in humility and grace. Jesus: It's okay, Peter. John is just expressing himself. Let's continue on our journey. As they continue walking, Peter stumbles and falls down the stairs. Peter: Ouch! My leg! Jesus: Peter, are you okay? Peter: Yeah, I think I just twisted my ankle. John (barking): Woof, woof! Peter: John, stop barking! Can't you see that I am in pain? Jesus: Peter, John is just trying to help. He is a faithful companion and cares for us deeply. Peter: I know, Jesus. I just get frustrated sometimes. I am not as strong and brave as you and John. Jesus: Peter, do not worry. We are all human and have our weaknesses. But with faith and trust in each other, we can overcome any obstacle. Let us continue on our journey together. |
John: Peter, I think we should take a different route. This staircase is too narrow and slippery, and I don't think it's safe for us to continue.
(The audience is surprised by John's ability to speak coherently)
Peter: John, I agree with you. Let's find a different way.
Jesus: Very well, let us take a different route and continue on our journey together.
(The three of them continue on their journey, with John leading the way)
As they reach the bottom of the stairs, John suddenly starts barking again.
Peter: John, what are you barking about now?
John (barking): Woof, woof, woof!
(The audience is surprised by John's sudden return to barking)
Jesus: John, what is it? Is something wrong?
John (barking): Woof, woof, woof!
(The audience waits with anticipation, unsure of what John is trying to say)
