When Mary goes grocery shopping, the sign “Ten Items or Less” is open to interpretation. She’s checking out in front of an increasingly impatient fellow shopper, while the polite clerk does everything she can to move the line along. These three comedic characters remind us of people we have experienced in this universally relatable situation — a grocery shopper who doesn’t seem to understand that the world doesn’t revolve around her.
This is a fast-paced, engaging play that captures how patience is tested and humor prevails in an express checkout lane. With simple staging, sharp dialogue, and strong characters, Ten Items or Less is a hit wherever it’s been performed!
