Musicals for us (the people)
When me and my friends would take magical trips (the mushroom and LSD variety) we would often return with the most fabulous ideas for musicals.
I am still trying to figure out a way to finance our stage productions. We even had a plan for what order we would release these musicals.
The first one we would do would be called "Pants, Pants, Pants." This musical is about pants and the glorious part they play in our lives. There'd be snazzy dance numbers and slow heart-breaking musical interludes.
This would be our opening number, so to speak.
Our money maker would be a more cabaret-like show called "Bending Our Lives Away." This show would feature a chorus line of girls in tiny dance costumes, bending and twisting to fun music!!! A sure way to finance our next musical.
This next musical is where we became more introspective and intellectual. It's called "Look at Us, Look at Them." It is the story of the four writers and producers of the musicals (A,J,J,S) after we have found fame. We are on top of the world and believe that there are no better musical writers thanus. We have become the snobbiest and most smug musical producers around. Then, all of a sudden, another four come along who are exactly like us in every way (looks, voices, thoughts, clothes) except better! We are left behind suddenly as the other group takes our place in the spotlight. The title song takes place after we have realized what our egos have done to us...
"Look at us, look at them"
This is just a few of the examples of the stage productions we cam up with. I think another one might have involved my hair (and only my hair) on stage doing a soliloquay. I'm not sure where the rest of me would be, except for my brain which should be in jar just off stage (to help the hair of course).
I was always one of the first people to fall asleep or lay catatonic on the floor after a heavy night of partying. This would be the time when my friends would take over my hair, and spread it out on the floor and wrap their fingers in it. It would be really funny because I would be half asleep, half awake and muttering things from my dream state. Nothing would make sense (not that much does when I'm awake) I'd say, "it's time to take the monkey for a walk" and my friends would crack up laughing. Then I'd wake up from the laughing and ask what was so funny, then I'd fall back to sleep.
I don't think I'm up for many more of those trips, my mission now and forever is to have our musicals on Broadway. We won't settle for anything less!
