Giant's Necklace by Michael

The Giant’s Necklace – play script by Michael

Cherry was looking at her necklace at the table wearing her dressing gown.

Cherry: There’s still the sea in them (talking to no one in particular) you can still smell it.

Mum: You’ve only got today (putting her arm around Cherry) we’re off back home tomorrow, first thing. Why don’t you call it a day dear? It’s long enough
already!

Cherry (shaking her head): No, only that little bit left, then it’ll be finished.

Mum (weakly): They’ll take hours to collect dear.

Cherry: Only a few hours (bending over, brows furrowed).

Mum(desperately):Isn’t it long enough, Cherry?

Cherry: No, it is going to reach the toaster!

Mum (turning away so she can continue her drying up) Well, I can’t spend all day on the beach today, Cherry!
