the play includes following  playlets.  (The play is about writing the play under
calm and peaceful atmosphere in the playwright's own home but unfortunately
she has a nasty neighbor who is racist and aggressive and at all hours of day and night disturbs her
concentration with false accusations of complaints such as,
MAKING NOISE: (making noise?  she sits for hours to write very quietly, no music, no tv, no pet
no children to run around, but he keeps coming back knocking at her door, knocking at the pipes from down below, ordering her to be quiet)

COMPLAINS OF WATER COMING DOWN A LEAK, A LEAK, A LEAK

(She hasn't
 even turned a water tap to drink a drop of water or to brush her teeth or to water the plants
but the neighbor has some kind of agenda against this lady for years but at this moment she is really
getting upset and frustrated because finally after writing many plays she has been invited to submit one of her play for a big opportunity and she us going through many of her plays to decide which one to send or this major grant.  So she hasn't slept for many nights, keep looking at certain parts of her
plays to decide which one will fit the bill but her agitation reaches a point where there is no return.)
