I'd call in performance art, but I'm not sure it's that. I guess it can only be referred to as an experiment.
The Glorious Involution
A Play in One Act
By Jon Bishop
Scene One
We see five actors illuminated by a blindingly white light. The room and floors are pale. They are seated across the stage and are expressionless.
They resemble aspects of a person: how so may be left to the director’s discretion.
All are named a letter A through E and this is indicative of their order.
Alternating from right to left, ending in the center:
E: (proudly) Five!
Blackout. E exits.
Lights up.
A: (frightened) Four!
Blackout. A exits.
Lights up.
B: (blandly) Three!
Blackout. B exits.
Lights up.
C: (angrily) Two!
Blackout. C exits.
Lights up.
D: (bombastically) One!
He stares at the audience.
Blackout.
Close curtain.
