Stage Fright

 


Act 3 Scene 322 Another day in the life. Willie Loman is sitting on a footstool in one corner of the stage staring into space. In the background Peggy Lee is softly singing "Is this all there is?" Richard Pryor gets the audience rocking with an hysterical monologue. A chorus sings "Nearer My God to Thee." The orchestra stikes up "Dixie." A masked Donald Trump waves at the audience from the back of a fake limmo. Mitt Romney comes on stage in blackface playing Kingfish. "I say there, Andy, are you sure about that?" Porky Pig closes saying, "Tha tha tha tha that's all folks." The stage goes black.
