EDNA - Ideas page

I would give Edna a very low voice like a smoker... like Chris Farley did with this character...

perhaps an Eastern accent to add edge....

Another one..

There's also the Church Lady voices like Dana Carvey...

G: That reminds me of my late husband.

T: When did he die?

G: He hasn’t died yet. He’s just always late. Come to think of it, he’s late for that too!

OR

G: I buried my husband last winter.

T: Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know. I hadn't heard that he died.

G: I never said he died.

T: To what do you owe your long life?

G: I owe most of it to the mortgage company, and the doctor, and the bank…

G: I made out my will the other day. And I can tell you, you’re not in it!

T: That’s fine. I have everything I need.

G: How are you going to take care of yourself?

T: What do you mean?

G: You’re a grown man and you still play with dolls. What are you going to do for a living?

T: I’m a ventriloquist!

G: That doesn’t answer the question! (pause) Who’s going to support you when I’m gone?

T: Who do you think is supporting YOU?

G: (Looks at feet.) My stockings!
