A Note from the Dramaturg – Love & Information
An Overheard Conversation About Change, with Links, Courtesy of Cast Member Juliet Walker
By Dante Flores, Production Dramaturg
(After Caryl Churchill’s Love and Information)
“I gave you $22.10”
“What?”
“I gave you $22.10 so my change should be $10. You gave me $9”
“Sorry sir you gave me $21.10”
“No I handed you $22.10 — I remember because I needed a ten in change so that’s why I paid with $22.10”
“You definitely gave me $21.10”
“I need a ten”
“Besides the fact that you only gave me $21.10 we don’t have any tens in the register so I couldn’t give you a ten back even if that’s what your change was”
“I gave you $22”
“Here’s another dollar sir I’m so sorry for your inconvenience have a nice day thank you.”
