Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Alarm of Fire: A Comedy in One Act Scene. - Drawing-room of Mrs. Jordan´s seaside cottage, simply furnished with wicker and cretonnes. Entrances back and each side; entrance right side draped as a French window leading to a veranda. Curtain rises on empty stage. Bell heard. Enter Katy, back, ushering in Mr. Alfred Forbes, who lays his card on the silver salver Katy carries, without speaking. Exit Katy, back, with card on salver. Forbes stands, hat and stick in hand, facing audience. Forbes (stammering). I´m g-g - (whistling) going to pro-pro-propose to Miss J-J - Katherine to-night if I b-b-bust! I´m not a b-b-b - not in the least nervous, but I´ll rehearse my sp-sp-sp - (quickly) what I am going to s-s-say. (Strikes attitude.) My d-d-dear Katherine, I lo-lo - (whistling) lo-lo - (quickly) am in love with you. Will you m-m-ma - Hang it, I´ve g-g-got to say m-m-m - (whistling) marry! (He listens.) I think she´s c-c-c-coming. Wh-what shall I say? Oh, I´ll p-p-pitch right in while it´s on my t-t-tongue. (Hears some one enter.) My dear Ka-ka-ka - Enter Katy. Katy (coyly). Yes, sir, Katy, sir. Did you wish to speak to me, sir? Forbes (turning). Oh, d-d - Jiminy! N-n-no, thank you, Katy. Katy (disappointed). Oh, very well, sir. Miss Jordan will be down right away. She says would you mind waitin´ outside, sir, as the evenin´ is so warm. Forbes (mopping his brow with his handkerchief), It is rather w-w-w - hot. I´ll c-c-cool off outside.
