GOING TO SEE EINSTEIN ON THE BEACH 9/20/2012

FINDING OUR SEATS

Look, there’s A! Oh, and there’s B? Oh! And there’s C and D and E!

My god, everybody is here. Except for people who came last week… wait, there’s X & Y!? Didn’t they go last week? I guess there are people who were here last week, too.

TRAIN SCENE:

If the words are important, why can’t we hear them?

Is this really an opera? What is an opera? What does Robert Ashley think of this?

Over and over, that train comes in.

THE TRIAL SCENE:

I wish I brought binoculars.

WHAT is on trial in this trial?

Is he a defendant?

I think it’s about chemistry.

EINSTEIN:

Einstein sure can play the violin!

BALLET:

I hate ballet. I like butoh.
