Lights come up on a street. There is a stop sign on the corner, and there is a wall in the back of it. A street light is the only thing illuminating the stage. A PERSON comes up to the wall. You can't tell if it is a man or a woman, because they are wearing a hoodie. The PERSON spray paints the wall, and runs away. A spot light comes up on the wall, and the spray paint reads "End the War, Uproot a Bush. Lights fade.
Again the street light is the only thing illuminating the stage. The same PERSON runs up to the same wall with "End the War, Uproot a Bush" on it and spray paints it again. The PERSON steps back to look at their work. The new graffiti shows the silhouette of Barack Obama speaking into a microphone that is plugged into a silhouette of the United States. A POLICEMAN enters.
POLICEMAN
Hey! Stop!
PERSON runs away. The POLICEMAN follows. Street light goes out.

Secret Ninja Skills.
Lights come up on a basement. There are 2 KIDS playing. They are play fighting.
KID 1
[throwing a fake punch.]
You'll never take me alive!
KID 2
[countering with a fake kick
Oh yeah? I'm gonna kick your butt!
The Kids play fight some more, until KID 1 accidentally punches the wall. This makes a hole in the wall. The 2 KIDS look at the hole in the wall, and then at eachother. They both proceed to run off stage. Lights fade.

We all have our talents.
lights come up on an alley. There is a dumpster filled to the brim with trash. Next to the dumpster, there is a door with a sign on it. The sign reads "Stripperella" on it. A big MAN comes through the door with a bag of trash. Just as he is about to go back through the door, he notices something offstage.
MAN
[staring offstage, trying to see who's there.]
Who's there?
Offstage, a WOMAN's voice is heard
WOMAN
[seductive]
Hey there fella...
MAN
What are you doing back here?
WOMAN
[coming closer to the MAN, touching his crotch.]
The only thing I'm good at...
MAN
[Backing away]
Hey now! None of that!
WOMAN
[moving closer]
C'mon baby...
MAN
I really don't think we-
Woman
[Interrupting while reaching down his pants.]
-It shouldn't take long.
MAN
[Unbuckling his pants]
Maybe just for a minute.
Lights go down on WOMAN getting on her knees in front of MAN with his pants down.

Banksy
There are no lights up on the stage. There are bangs heard coming from the outside of the stage. It sounds like tools hitting rock. There are three more bangs before a single light comes up on the back of the stage. This is to show that someone has broken through the wall. A New York POLICE OFFICER walks into the cave, and inspects the walls. He can't quite see, so he pulls out a flashlight. He shines the flashlight across the wall, and cave drawings are seen in the light. The POLICE OFFICER takes a step back, and shines the light from where he came.
POLICE OFFICER
[shouting]
We got another one!
POLICE OFFICER turns around to inspect the wall again. CITY WORKER comes in the entrance to the cave.
POLICE OFFICER
This is disgraceful...
CITY WORKER
Did you ever just look at it?
POLICE OFFICER
Look at what? This Graffiti?
CITY WORKER
It looks like something more...
POLICE OFFICER
It looks illegal.
CITY WORKER
It looks like art. It looks old too...
POLICE OFFICER
It doesn't matter what it looks like. Do it.
The CITY WORKER walks out of the cave, he is gone for a moment. He comes back with a pressure water sprayer. He begins to wash off the cave drawings.
CITY WORKER
Sorry little guys...
Lights fade.
