Whoa! Hey Now!

Bad Dog performance part II. Sean, Nick and I took to the stage again tonight. Sean ended up giving both monologues tonight (what a guy!). The first was about arsonists and the second was about, Skara Brae, a Scottish town in the Orkney Islands. The first monologue inspired a story about a man, newly arrived in Goofytown, who was only interested in normal things, but on the advice of his wife decided to try to broaden his horizons. The second story was an epic one, indeed. Two cousins, one a roman senator, the other an outcast rebel, both bent on destroying all the glass in Rome. The last story, inspired by the second monologue, was multi-tiered. It started with two brothers in wind-swept Scottish cottage enjoying Mother’s Soup debating the legitimacy of words. Next, the story moved to a graffiti-ist carving a name onto the statue of Ste-Brunhilde. Swiftly, we moved to the story of Ste-Brunhilde who, we discovered, produced potions to bring sinners into God’s Flock. We moved back to the carver and then back again to the brothers who were really quite peeved that their day of boardgames was being interupted by the fact that they had to punish graffiti artists. We had a lot of fun, and the show was an interesting challenge.
