It's an amazing experience. I mean A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!!

I'm playing Willy Lowdown and the director is so pleased with my preformance that he's changing the ending so that I don't kill myself. Instead, he's written this long soliquey for me that explains how I transformed myself into a loving father and a loyal husband before entering a monastery.

Thoughts?

Oh, you'll love the added scene where all of the Lowdown men go for a bris!

Can't so that. It's in the newly-revised script.

This is gonna win a Pulitzer. Believe me!

After the bris, are you playing Linda?

Don't be silly!

I forgot to mention, we've added a song for the bris scene. It's called "Everybody Ought To Have A Bris"

I think I've heard the melody somewhere before.

Wait, I know this one!

Everybody ought to have a bris.
Everybody ought to have a working mohel,
A serious, unshirking mohel,
Who hopefully isn't soused.

I'm sorry, DP. I don't remember who did the music either. Well, they're probably not famous, so don't worry about it.

THAT IS THE VERY LYRIC! Have you done this show before? I think there was a previous production that was performed on ice. I don't know if it was well-received.

Well-chilled, yes. Well-received, no. I believe you're thinking of The Ice Capades featuring Dorothy Hamill presents Hedwig and the Angry Inch. If memory serves me right, they closed before the zamboni could clean the rink.

No. I'm definitely talking about DEATH OF A SALESSMAN: On ICE.

Or was it THE ICEMAN COMETH? I always get those two confused.

I'm sorry. It must have been The Ice Capades presents Nathan Lane in The Iceman Cometh. I understand that when he confessed to Dorothy Hamill's murder, it brought the rink down.

I can't wait for the upcoming revival of Driving Miss Daisy On Ice, in which they ride in a zamboni.

However, that's been re-named. It's now called DRIVING MISS CRAZY: ON ICE.
