“These Hands” Actors should not be lined up in the exact order of their monologues. Actors have their backs to the audience and turn to face the audience right before they deliver their first lines – i.e. the underlined portion of the previous actor’s lines. An option would be to have the actors overlap on the words “these hands.” After delivering their monologues, actors freeze with their hands out front with palms up. An option could be to lift the hands slowly to a posture of worship as the music begins at the end of the script and as the lights fade. Woman #1: These hands. I remember the first time they picked up a drink. I remember thinking how it was
