fz notes in lso2 Quote:
IV. BOB MEETS JANE<br><br>The lights change to an exterior moonlight feel. From the left pushing a chrome supermarket cart full of clothes and parcels tied with a string, JANE enters. She is wearing a special costume which appears to be three ancient raggedy overcoats, worn one on top of the other, and a horrible felt hat which conceals her face. Her feet are wrapped in newspaper and string (special shoes which look like that). She is obviously a homeless Bag Lady making her nightly rounds before settling down in the street for her desperate slumber. As she arrives with her worldly treasures and searches the stage for a suitable place to sleep, BOB, still on the floor from the last scene, sees Jane and remains very still, hoping she won't notice him . . . because he thinks she is DISGUSTING. At last, Jane finds her spot and settles down. She has noticed Bob but she doesn't care how disgusting he is, so long as he doen't mess with the stuff she has in her basket.<br><br>V. JANE'S CLOTHES<br><br>The lights change to include shadow projections of dream-like patterns in Jane's vicinity. Smoke hovers near the floor.<br><br>Writhing in her sleep, as Bob watches in amazement, JANE emerges from her horrible overcoat cocoon as a beautiful girl . . . totally nude except for the newspaper and string wrapped around her feet. The overcoat and hat are left in a pile on the stage to dream on by themselves. THE NEW IMPROVED JANE takes various treasured items from the basket. She pretends to try on various pieces of ragged clothing, tossing each garment on the overcoat as she finishes. BOB moves around the stage, observing but not believing what he sees. <br><br>VI. WHAT JANE'S BODY REALLY LOOKS LIKE<br><br>In the midst of this, an enormous inflatable replica of a genuinely disgusting version of Jane's Nude Body is lowered onto the stage causing Bob to recoil in terror, as he obviously prefers The Other Jane. The lighting changes, casting purple and red shadows from below the inflatable monstrosity, making it look even worse. The beautiful naked Other Jane dances around it, laughing at Bob . . . as his inflatable replica appears again, also made uglier by the low angle lighting effect. The Real Bob tries to keep the beautiful naked Other Jane from looking at his replica. The bubbles start coming out again as both replicas are deflated and the dancers disappear into the darkness on opposite sides of the stage.
