Community Theater Green Room Discussion Board: short plays/ scenes set in restaurants

Message

   I'm putting together a an evening of scenes set in a restaurants or could be adapted to be set in restaurants and am looking for scenes I may have overlooked or don't know about.

Plays I have so far are:

"The Philadalphia" and "Sure Thing" by David Ives
"Check Please"
"Lives of the Great Waitresses"
"Twenty Dollar Drinks"
"Welcome to the Moon"
"The Battle of Bull Run Always Makes Me Cry"

I'm writing a couple myself, but would love to look at a few more scripts before I decide on my final list.  Any help would be appreciated.

	"The Mistake" www.hitplays.com Synopsis: Finger-pointing, name-calling, and shocking revelation! Blame, guilt, and a verbal battle royale that has lasted for years, (all of their lives!), through childhood’s laughter and as an adult’s sad tears. The Mistake is a fast-paced character study of two friends revealed in a nostalgia-based argument of comic memories, charged bickering and banter, and an unexpected reversal. A madcap, modern, private conversation and a humorous biting look at best friends.

	First of all, welcome to the board. If you're talking about scenes from a full length play, there are some scenes in Glengarry Glen Ross set in restaurants. A friend of mine once had the idea to stage the play at various restaurants moving from one to another for the different scenes but it never happened.
