BRECHT

A YOUNG MAN GOES TO THE THEATRE
TO SEE WHAT IT'S ABOUT.
AN ACTRESS OF A CERTAIN AGE
IS PROMENADING ROUND THE STAGE.
HE'S HEARD IT SAID SHE'S ALL THE RAGE.
SHE'S OLD AND LOUD AND STOUT.
SHE'S SINGING -

GROSZ AS "ACTRESS"

(In basso, on the platform, singing to JOHNNY)
I'M A VIRGINAL YOUNG MISS
ANTICIPATING MY FIRST KISS.

BRECHT

HE THINKS THE CROWD WILL BOO AND HISS -
INSTEAD THEY CHEER AND SHOUT.
HE SAYS -

JOHNNY

NOW WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?
WHAT'S THIS ALL ABOUT?

DIETRICH

IT'S ABOUT ILLUSION.
IT'S ABOUT MAKE BELIEVE.
IT'S ABOUT ART AND LIFE
AND HOW THEY INTERSECT.

BRECHT

IN THE MANNER OF BRECHT.
