(Enter DIRECTOR and ALL BG DANCERS in formation)
DIRECTOR: "There is a story yet to be told;
A tale of life we are here to unfold.
You'll applaud and you'll long to be part of it all...
But it's ours!
So sit back, relax,
And enjoy!"--
(Enter ALL CAST in formation)
--"What say you, let's start with a beginning --
Begin where many have already begun
At the root of the human world, barely opened,
Where true colors shine through
-(Aside) At least I hope they do!-
What say you, or you, or you..
Shall I set it all in motion?
Let's get this show on the road,
Explore new thoughts and old emotions.
Get your scripts ready, guys;
It's just about time-
TO ROCK THEIR WORLD!"
(Flourish, Exit ALL BG DANCERS and ALL CAST)
(Shift) Oh, come on, go go go! Shoo- Hey, you backstage! Grab those props labled "ACT ONE: Scene One" and get moving! You with the hat, help him set them up with the right actors...No, there; to your right! AGH! Not stage right...
(Exit DIRECTOR)

DIRECTOR: "WRONG SCRIPT!"
