This is a short monologue I wrote as part of the development process for my first play, "Three", which I was very lucky to have taken on by Rikki Beadle-Blair and John Gordon for the 2013 Angelic Tales new writing festival at Theatre Royal Stratford East in London. During one of the big rewrites, I wrote a short monologue for each of the characters, not as part of the play, but as much as anything to help me understand how they felt about themselves, and how that affected their relationships. Gerry's the character who's closest to me in age, so I've made his monologue into this film as a teaser for the play. “Three” has a staged reading, directed by Robert Chevara, at Stratford East on Wednesday 12 June 2013. Don't worry - it' won't be me playing Gerry on the night!
