Scene 1
Black stage. Spot on BRENDA, an old lady with a white topknot, holding a tin of baked beans. She has a cigarette in the other hand.
BRENDA
For the first time in sixty seven years I’m a winner. I mean, I actually gone and won
something! Yeah, me. Only other time I ever come close I was six. Art competition.
Drew a picture of the Queen. You know – to celebrate her coronation. Holding a glass
of wine and a balloon she was. Very nice. A lovely bright blue. Came second. Though
Miss Brown said I ought to have come first.
