( Pause.) See, I’m tired a hiding things.

Gonna get redheads, ain’t you? Feed ’em beef and booze, get ’em in showers-do it on chairs, stools, floors-inna tub. Blond boys, dark-haired ones, Spanish spics-hot bloods-black boys. Make a salad inna middle a the night if you want. Gonna cook roast beef, ham, carrots and peas on a side. Play it loud as you want whenever you want. Now that you’re here, got a place of your own, I bet you think you’re gonna get it all done. They sway, embrace dreaming, playful, facing out.) In any case, the scene now proceeds with instruments only under their dialogue so that, in a sense, it is their dialogue that is the lyric to the music. This section can be looped, or perhaps an instrumental version of the song should be made with a saxophone lead instead of the vocal. ( She relaxes, smiles, settles back into his arms, as the instrumental section of the music continues. Suddenly she starts as if she doesn’t know he’s there. His arms are around her waist she holds his hands. Behind her stands a man, older, in a dark suit and a tie, a flower in his lapel. Slowly the soft, dreamy lights rise to show us Chrissy, a young, sexy but not glamorous girl in a rather childlike, or high-school-like, dress swaying to the music. In the darkness, “Angel Baby” by “Rosie and the Originals begins to play. The lighting must work to provide definition of one area from the other, and time, place and mood, yet always with some relation to the metaphor of the bar. All colors in the set must take their legitimacy from the metaphor of the bar. The most essential job of the set is to provide a metaphoric realm in which the specific areas can be made present with great facility, for the transitions from scene to scene must be clear, effortless, and instantaneous if the play is to be most effective. However, there is a danger in too many specifics regarding any one setting in the play. A rug on the floor of her apartment area might be useful, and some drawers built into the front walls of the upper-level elevation might serve as dressers in her apartment scenes. Or an apron, a mini-thrust stage, might be located midway between the upper level and mid-level, so that it could serve as a place of prominence for dancing, yet be easily used as the bed in Chrissy’s apartment. A bed rolling on from under the upper area might be useful in creating the specifics of Chrissy’s apartment: a bed covered in satin, a tawdry color, an emblem and aspect of life in the go-go bar. There should be a large number of avenues of exit and entrance around the stage and through the backdrop so that characters, when necessary, can appear or disappear from any direction with ease. Once a setting is established, it should be possible for the actor to prowl a larger area of the stage without any sense of confusion about where the action is taking place. Mainly the specific “setting” of each scene should be determined by the characters present, their costumes, dialogue, and the very, very carefully selected hand props that they use (which could perhaps be stylized in some way). We supply Burlesque, Drinks and Food.Though the backdrop for the entire stage should have some element of the go-go bar in it, the set must be capable of allowing the bar element to be reduced at times, and occasionally even eliminated.
