SCENE 1
Salters home
It is dark outside, the blinders are down. B2 is sitting in the sofa. Salter has just made 2 clear drinks (alcohol?), and is putting tonic back in the fridge when play starts.
(What do they do before, when audience is getting seated-I dont know yet)
INTERMISSION
-End of scene 1. B2 dissapears in door/ big closet (right side) barely seen in the dark, closes door
-Bright light starts in closet. B1 comes out, changed. Extreemly bright light outside, blinds still down. B sits down in sofe beside a totally motionless Salter who has unbuttoned his shirt , taken of his shoes and is holding a robe that has been hidden in the sofa. This entire sequence has a strange creepy twilightly quality to it (lighting, maybe some subtile noice etc)The moment B1 sits down, things snap back to realistic, S jumps up and puts on the robe and walks over to the kitchen and starts a waterboiler.
SCENE 2
B1 sits on the sofa (like he has conquered it- apperengly confident, wide legs and arms spreading over the entire sofa this way men like to sit (especially in crowded subways..)
S is fuzzing with tea, then comes back and sit on chair by sofa. He is not looking at B1. B1 is constantly looking, staring, at Salter.
INTERMISSION
Bright light from closet/ door. B1 goes in and closes door. Dark. B2 comes out. S has hidden the robe. Is wearing the same shirt as scene 1, but unbuttoned.
SCENE 3
SCENE 4
INTERMISSION
The light goes out. Noisy musiccollage (like my emotinal responce. Ill find it and make an mp3 to put here) The curtains are drawn aside, and the diorama is pushed foreward (by whom?)
(is salter sitting inside it on a chair? B2? hmm)
SCENE 5
New location. At the museum of natural history. MB is standing with his back to the audience
Salter enters through door in the wall panel (left) (not there yet, but in research)
End
Light on Salter makes reflection in Diorama so he looks like he is inside. Michael b leaves
