Un Homme Pressé – Extrait 57
thought to catch them later. He never did So back home, sweet smell of the known, he just sat, switched on the TV, and watched the top ten replay from the football games. 10 AM, the house went into a crazy move of every single entities moving in a defined path unknown from the others, a life in itself, an ecosystem supporting the life of the house. The wall were vibrating, some cheers went through the double layer of the windows. It was cricket time. Henri stormed out of his room, and met Justin down the hallway. Hiya, going to the field watching cricket, fancy coming? Why not, let me grab my jacket Not that Henri knew cricket, it was a good time to let the spirit settle and think of something else. Its where he would meet the muse for whose he wrote this music. What was he thinking about? Hey you up there, I told you not to enter my brain. Second warning. As soon as he got excited speaking to the invisible, this thought vanished and went back deep-buried in the cemetery of lost thoughts. This way, Justin lost the track of what he was thinking and turned to his mate: So Henri, thinking of putting your writing in less pensive, more acting mode? What are you speaking about? Some moves, dynamic moves. You have a good set up of the people. Ive seen what you are thinking of in your scale down model, still how are you going to fill the whole space? Only with a board game? True, something I havent checked yet, I was focusing on the speech and the lyrics and missed this point around. Still at one stage, I believe scene III, the actors are going through the audience and start to speak. Well yes, thats a start, but didnt you think of having more contribution from the audience, build on the unexpected reaction from one to the other It is my first play, it is for fun, I can see more and more complexity thinking your way. Its to be prepared, and to grab the audience in an unanimous wave. Will never happen, how many people will be attending it? Perhaps 10, 20, maybe 30. I am keeping that as a gift, I want the surprise of seeing their reaction. And the costume, where are you doing it? And the make-up? On the go, we are in England, there are 7 11 all around, why should it be different through this play The unexpected will bring its doses of silence, it will break the rhythm of the play, and perhaps even worst, the flow of the whole scene. You know that last impressions are the one that count, you cannot gamble on a series of cock-ups. You should enter politics, you would be a great assistant in setting up the scene and the speech during the election time. Did it, not worth. Ok, I am taking numbers here just to give an idea, nothing more. In an audience, you have 50% of the people sharing the same conviction as the person giving the speech, 10% of journalists, and the remaining 40% of opponents or not well yet totally decided where their voting will go. Surprises are much less than the one we will witness on your play. Ok, so tell me, dont have any actors yet, fancy looking at that, and starting to recruit, your help would be invaluable there. And, yes I do see you in the play, just pick up the one you would enjoy and go. I am free to choose any actors Totally, and as soon as they can remember 10 lines and express an emotion Ok, I am coming back home, I do enjoy that. Back home, he plugged on facebook, and put the announcements to the Bristol area, to his friends, to the unknowns people across the streets that might be interested, well interested is a big word. He had no fish to attract the prey, only the pleasure of going on scene, playing 5 acts, and going back to the usual day to day life. He gave a shot at writing an ad on the local website where every events were posted, from the last fishing contest, to music
