No-Shame Coup D'état, or, A Victory Clutched in the Snatch of Defeat
by Nick Clark

[Table and one chair with thermos, cookies, newspaper. Downstage is Nick]
Who here thinks No-Shame is the coolest darn thing ever? [Pause ] Who here thinks No-Shame is just pathetic? [Pause, depending on response. ] I don't know why I'm asking you anyhow [or ] wow, you guys have thought this out a lot more thoroughly than I expected.
Because this is my skit, my opinion is the only one which counts. So, here it is. In my opinion, No-Shame is just the same old scatological humor and partial nudity interspersed with some mild self satire or philosophical insight. It's getting dull. The audience is tired of coming here week after week and being treated to relentless, highly energetic fart jokes, blowjobs and self pity.
So, who better to bring something new to the stage than myself, a relative newcomer? I present the following. A truly relaxing no shame skit, taken directly from my own life.
[Nick sits at the table, pours himself a cup of tea from the thermos and reads the paper while munching a cookie. He does this for several seconds, and slowly his hand reaches inside his own shirt so that he can make fart noises with his armpit. He takes off his shirt and continues to make fart noises with his armpit while continuing to read the paper. He undoes his pants and pushes them around his ankles, then jumps up and starts hopping up and down. He has begun to shout. ]
BLOWJOB! TITS! FARTS! POOP! FUCKER!
[He puts back on his shirt and pants. ]
Jesus Christ I was such a moron for thinking this could work.
[Lights out. ]
