Welcome my friends
(Mr Barry!)
Glad you could join me on this most auspicious day
(Hip-hip-hooray!)
I hope you'll forgive
Mistakes and errors, we're just getting under way
(Of course, we understand)
You may recognize some of the scenes
You all played a part in sowing the seeds
Cause there is magic here in my imagination
Just believe and that can be a creation
The stories we invented, all the fun that we found
Appearing here before your eyes
The world is upside down
Our characters, what is their motivation?
Because you see I have to live and breath my part
Drawing from my own life experience
Nibs is a lost boy
Oh, lost! Good, interesting, Yes
That I can use, good, right
Is he lost in an emotional purgatory
Or lost in an existentional search for himself? Yes
No, he's just lost
Good heavens, where, when, and how?
Do you have experience being lost?
We're experiencing it now
Dogs, boy, playing, lost, hope, frustration
Believe and it can be a creation
Actors don't fly, because actors could die
Start by saying I can do it, then you can try
I can't, I won't, will not, not me
There is no magic in your imagination
I do not believe in your new creation
This disaster is all due to your play
This could be my last first day
Nauseous, anxious, my reputation, playing lost, get lost!
Serious actors cannot work this way
A positive start
The world is upside down
