5 minute comedy
2 men, 3 women, 1 either
A bold senator, a devoted aide, two wildly creative waitresses, and a very confused captain—what could possibly go wrong? Set in a lively cruise ship cocktail lounge, Now Hear This is a fast-paced comedy where a harmless introduction snowballs into a hilariously tangled series of misunderstandings. As messages pass from person to person, every word gets twisted until flirtation becomes scandal, concern becomes catastrophe, and nobody is hearing quite the same thing. Packed with wordplay, escalating confusion, and big personalities, this lighthearted romp proves that sometimes the real problem isn’t the situation… it’s what people think they heard.
What they say:
- Now Hear This is funny, funny, funny. We loved every minute of it!
- Total comic mayhem—everyone is so confident and so completely wrong.
- This play is pure fun, and a masterclass in timing, listening, and letting the audience in on the joke as everything spins just a little more out of control.
- I really enjoy how it turns language into the main event. Every character is absolutely certain they’re communicating clearly, and that confidence is what makes it so hilarious.
