Belmont Community Players 2003 Fall

Act I, Scene 1

Comatose (Dorine Hummel) talks with Jenny Flutterpearl (Roxanne Fausett).

JENNY: Did you wash up last night's dirty dishes?
COMATOSE: Yes, ma'am. It wasn't easy, scallopini sticks.
JENNY: Did you change the linen on all the beds?
COMATOSE: Never do. I just move the sheets from room to room. No one ever notices.
JENNY: Don't forget to iron my new frock and fluff my feather boa. Tonight is amateur night at Barrett's Opera House. I must look my best.
COMATOSE: You going to sing again? You like to live dangerously.
JENNY: What would you call this? ... [sing] ...
COMATOSE: I give up. What would you call it?
JENNY: A great voice.
COMATOSE: [to audience] More like a voice that grates.
