JOE, THE FLORIST — Dramatic Monologue (1960s)
By Harrie Mulé

Joe is 42. He delivers flowers by bike cart to wealthy Park Avenue apartments—arrangements that cost more than the rent in the tenement where his kids sleep. After a brutal workday and a final insult disguised as a tip, Joe takes refuge in an Irish pub, trying to calm down before he risks bringing his anger home. This monologue is a study in restraint, class pressure, and love that doesn’t always sound gentle. It’s built for actors who can carry intimacy and fury in the same breath.
