Tonight we're going to do a story about two lonely and lost people who discovered in each other the meaning of existence.

It's sad and in a wonderful way we think one of the most beautiful stories we've done. And so tonight we present a new play by Morton Fine and David Friedken called A Corner of Autumn.

My name in the play is Harry Miller. And I'm Joyce De Silva. And we're two people in a very large city, in a small part of a very large city. opening scene, a bar, a very cheap bar, and very tired laughter from tired jokes and old observations. A bartender and customer. Customer is not so much but neither is the

wine. And the entertainer is not so much either. Listen. And that's the setting. And here's the action. A man, Harry Miller, walking through the door. What are you doing in a friend? Nothing. You need it. It's mostly a job.

Ouch. You got a piano. I looked first. Show me where. Point it to him right there. There you're pointing it good. I'd say you've been off the booze for how long? A couple of days a week?

Job, make it easier. I'm down to ten bucks. You guys kill me. You know what I always say? I always say once a rumpad always... Don't do that, mister. Go ahead. Play. Play for her. She could use it.
