4.9.2007: We Gather the World in Our Arms

The actors are assembled. They speak simultaneously, each speaking about something that makes them almost inexpressibly happy. Their faces radiate with joy.

An actor steps forward.


AN ACTOR
We gather the world in our arms!

They all stop speaking. And for a moment, they just stand there, perfectly themselves, perfectly at rest, just simply…

…perfect.


AN ACTOR
Sometimes there’s only the space between you and your happiness to cross.

The lights go down.
