"Right, well, we may not be Ringling Brothers, BUT we have always been quality .... right??" The group of painted and costumed clowns sat looking up at the spectacle. Their exaggerated shoes patting together in an agitated manner.
O.K., the boy arrived 10 months ago with no skills, no presence, nothing except a wish to be a flyer ... a trapeze artist ... he almost got a nose bleed every time he went up. BUT, there he was ... opening night.
The wigged, red nosed clowns were intent. "Can you believe THAT'S his costume?" We'll never live this down!!!" "Wilbur, he's in white tights!" " You better look at yourself .... you've taken the Velveteen Rabbit to an all NEW LOW .... really !!!"

I'd pay to see a flying blue bunny in tights. :)~Ames
ReplyDeleteI love your take on our blue bunny suited man...not something I would wear...at least not without some 'medicinal' aids ;-) Glad to see you putting your excellent writing skills to Saturday Centus...Peace, blessings, and have a lovely Easter...
ReplyDeleteI'd pay, too. Ames said she'd pick me up. What time is the first show??
ReplyDeleteI really liked this. great job.
ReplyDeleteNice take. Surprisingly, not many have seen the theatrical possibilities of this picture of the costumed man.
