Monologues

Maggie

Maggie Winslow ... sometimes known as Margaret, Margie, Peggy ... all of the above. Whatever, it’s real and I was born in San Mateo, California on a Thursday evening at 10:40pm, August 17, 1950. I don’t know what they were for or against really, except each other. I mean I was born to save their marriage but when my father came to pick my mother up at the hospital he said, “Well, I thought this was going to help. But I guess it’s not ...” A few months later, he left. Anyway, I did have a fantastic fantasy life. I used to dance around the living room with my arms up like this. My fantasy was that I was an Indian Chief ... And he’d say to me, “Maggie, do you wanna dance?” And I’d say, “Daddy,I would love to dance.”
