[Another collaborative play. You make up the next bit.]
ACT ONE
Scene one: A small stage, with red velvet curtains. A figure stands centre stage, lit by a very bright spotlight. The Magician (for it is she) is wearing a hackneyed top hat, tails, and fishnet tights combo, along with glitzy red slingbacks. The effect is somewhat let down by the fact that every portion of exposed skin is covered with a thick layer of what appears to be clay or plaster. The magician is observed by an audience consisting of a semicircle of identical silver robots, all seated on black plastic lawn chairs.
(Note: the real audience, that is, the people observing the play, would be sat behind the robots and would only see their backs.)
MAGICIAN: (Looks around, confused, as if she's not quite sure what's required of her.)
A ROBOT: Make the birds.
ANOTHER ROBOT: Oh, yes. You must make the birds.
ROBOT AUDIENCE: Make the birds. Please make the birds. |
