Who’s there?
“Who’s there?”
My favorite first line of dialogue (or even first line of a story).
Two simple words, and yes I know there’s a contraction.
Yet, for an entire play we’re trying to figure out who is actually there.
Who are these characters?
David Tennent calls it the longest knock-knock joke.
I’m laughing at my own inability to write two simple words with such intent and purpose.
