Behind Broadway Act I Part 5

----CAST AND CREW CAFE----
WHAT'S THE POINT WE LOST HEL'NA MORVE

CLAIRE CAN'T POSSIBLY FILL THE ROLE

STUDENTS COUPLES AND CRITICS
WILL BE STRUCK WITH FACIAL TICKS
THIS WILL SLAUGHTER MY CAREER
STUCK IN HEADLIGHTS LIKE A DEER

DO NOT DESPAIR
DESPAIR IS SIMPLY ADMITTING DEFEAT
I HAVE NO FEAR
I AM SURE THIS IS AN ODD WE CAN BEAT
BECAUSE OUR TECH AND OUR SCRIPT ARE ALL VERY GOOD
AND I CAN'T THINK OF A WAY TO IMPROVE ON OUR CAST
AND WITH OR WITHOUT A LEAD LIKE MORVE
WE SHALL OPEN OUR CURTAIN AND SING TO THE LAST
LET'S HAVE SOME HOPE
WE CANNOT AFFORD
T' SIT ON OUR BUTTOCKS
TO LAY DOWN AND MOPE
WELL WHAT DO YOU SAY?

WHAT DO WE SAY?
WE'RE CERTAIN THAT WE'RE AT AN END

THAT'S NOT QUITE WHAT I WANT TO HEAR

HAVE HOPE YOU SAY WHAT HOPE HAVE WE
HOPE IS ALL BUT LOST TO ME
I STILL DON'T KNOW MY MONOLOGUE

YOU'RE TOO FORLORN YOU'RE A DISGRACE
THAT IS FAR TOO SLOW A PACE
I THOUGHT YOU WERE A DEMAGOGUE
THE JOB OF ACTOR CAN BE HARD
WORK HARDER YOU SAD RETARD
I MAY BEAT YOU WITH A ROD

IT'S A POINT IN OUR LIVES
TO STEP UP AND BE GREAT
NOW YOUR PHONE HAS JUST RUNG
DEST'NY WANTED TO SET UP A DATE
NOW IT'S ONE OF THOSE TIMES
YOU MUST EARN ALL YOUR PAY
IS IT WORTH THE HEARTACHE
WE SUFFER FOR A PLAY
YOU CAN BE NO ONE
THEN SOMEONE IN A DAY

HOPE - PLEASE HAVE IT FOR US ALL
FIGHT - WE HAVE NOT REACHED THE END
HOPE - DON'T GIVE IN TO DESPAIR
FIGHT - OUR BAD LUCK STILL CAN BEND

I FEEL YOU ARE RIGHT
THIS CAN BE OVERCOME
CLAIRE IS SIMPLY A NEWBIE
BUT TONIGHT IS HER NIGHT
I KNOW YOU ARE RIGHT
FOR THE SHOW MUST GO ON
WE OWE IT TO TONI
TO HAVE EYES THAT ARE BRIGHT
FOR WHATEVER GOES WRONG
WE MUST FACE THAT STAGE LIGHT

CAST

WE WILL GIVE IT OUR ALL

CREW

WE KNOW THAT THEY'LL SUCCEED

CAST

WE WON'T BREAK THE FOURTH WALL

CREW

THEY ALWAYS MEET OUR NEED


PEOPLE, THIS IS NOT JUST A DRILL
THE SHOW MUST GO ON AND IT WILL
I EXPECT YOU ALL TO BE ON THE BALL
WE HAVE GIVEN CLAIRE THE ROLE
THOUGH SHE IS AN ACTING FOAL
WE'LL GET THAT SECOND CURTAIN CALL

LIGHTS

MAKE SURE THEY'RE ALL TURNED ON

SOUND

I WANT NO SPEAK POPS

SONG

REMEMBER ALL THE WORDS

DANCE

AND PLEASE DON'T BREAK YOUR LEG
