A Slow Andy Sketch

by Timothy Meinke

 

Cast

Andyphus………………………………..................Slow Andy’s Ancient Greek Ancestor

Andreaus………………………………..................Andyphus’s wife

 

Foot of a hill. A boulder rolls slowly on screen and comes to a stop in the center of the screen. Andyphus enters panting. He is wearing a leopard-skin tunic and a wreath of laurel leaves around his A-lettered baseball cap. He points to the rock and looks up the hill with a questioning look. He shakes his head to confirm a “no” answer. He sighs and starts pushing boulder up the hill.

Montage of Andyphus as he sweats and strains pushing the rock up the hill.

Cut to Andreaus waiting for him at the top of the hill in a toga. Andyphus finally reaches the top with his rock. Andreaus looks around and at the rock thoughtfully.

 

Andreaus

Hmmm… no. I think it’ll look better down there. (Points downhill.)

 

Andyphus gives her a look and turns back to the boulder. He pushes it until it starts to roll downhill. He goes chasing after it.

Cut to foot of the hill. Caption “3,000 Years Later” flashes at the bottom of the screen. Boulder rolls slowly on screen and comes to a stop. Contemporary Andy enters panting.

 

Andrea

(Off-screen.) I’ve changed my mind! It looks better up here!

 

Andy grunts loudly in frustration. He pushes boulder up the hill and off-screen.
