On the next episode of Kenan and Kel...
Picture this:
It's the big opening night for my show Metamorphoses. I'm really pumped about it and can't wait to blow these people away.
Oh, if I only could have imagined what was in store...
EVERYTHING THAT COULD'VE GONE WRONG, WENT WRONG.
It was UNREAL.
First, a slight technical problem that turned a beautiful scene where the character Orpheus enters the River Styx and is enveloped in a shimmering shower of water from avove the stage into the pool. Tonight, the shower decided it was going to not spring forth a shower but spurt out a solid stream. In short, it looked like God was pissing on Orpheus' head.
Second, during my narcissus scene where i fall in love with myself and freeze on the stop so two fellow actors can pick me up and carry me, still frozen, offstage. Well, the other actor decided to forget his crucial entrance and there was nothing i could do except completley break character and get up and walk off so i just waited there, while the other guy that had to pick me up, stood there freaking. NO ONE BACKSTAGE CAUGHT ON TO THIS SO THE GUY ONSTAGE SAYS: 'Well, I can't carry him ALONE!" which then the other girl on the stage says: "don't look at me." no one came to our rescue so the guy onstage splashed water on my face and....I WOKE UP OUT OF THE TRANCE. the funny thing here is that narcissus dies looking at himself, but it ended up with me shaking off and saying: "phew! i don't know what came over me!" AMAZING
every learned that it's ok to love yourself in excess. myth shattered. amazing.
and the fucking arch de triumph:
The scene when i'm pretty much NAKED: my balls are hanging out in a speedo, i'm suppeosed to get on a raft attached in the shallow end and fall asleep there. tonight and never before, the styrofoam raft UNDOCKS and floats the deep end. okay, not too big of a deal. but keep in mind, i am blindfolded during this scene and now i'm all fucking turned around. but whatever, every is fine instead of that small detail. then, this girl is supposed to get on the raft with me; now, we've practiced this move several times before with no trouble. but tonight, as soon as she gets on the raft, A HUGE FUCKING RIP HAPPENS AND THE STYROFUCKFOAM RAFT SPITS DOWN THE MIDDLE. HERE I AM FUCKING ALMOST NAKED AND IT'S LIKE A MINIEARTHQUAKE WHILE I'M MAKING OUT WITH THIS GIRL IN FRONT OF TONS OF PEOPLE. she starts laughing and i try and remain in character, the audience is crying from laughter. here i am also thinking that the few giggles i got at the beginning where people thought my nakedness funny would be silenced when they saw how beautiful the end of the scene is. DEAD WRONG.
it was UNREAL. NEVER, NEVER HAS ANYTHING LIKE THIS HAPPENED BEFORE.
best opening night ever. good thing our first reviewer was there! I'll post the review as soon as i get it.
good night and please come see my AMAZING show.
