Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Winning Widow: A Parlor Comedy, in Two Acts Scene: Drawing room at Mrs. Snowden´s home. Practical doors at R. and L. Lady´s writing desk and chair at back, left of C. Small table with books, lamp, etc., R. C. downstage. Chairs either side of table. Couch L. C. downstage. Other arrangements to suit taste. An air of elegance pervades everything. At rise Kitty is discovered, practicing at piano. Kitty. One - two - three - four; one - two - three - four; one - two - three - four. The idea of beginning to learn music at my age - especially when you haven´t a bit of it in you. One - two - three - four. Enter Bess R. Walks up behind her. Bess. Did you want me to - Kitty (jumping up, screaming). O-o-o-h! Goodness! How you startled me, Bess. What do you want? Bess (timidly). Why - why - nothing. I just wanted to dust the parlor, if you wanted - Kitty. Excellent, Bess; excellent. I´ll be delighted to have you dust. (Closes piano with a bang.) I was only trying to please mamma by learning how to pound the piano. She does love music so, you know. (Walks toward R. looking toward Bess hesitatingly, as though wanting to speak, but uncertain how to proceed.) Bess (looking over shoulder). Was that music, Miss Kitty? Kitty. Oh, no, no, no! Never a note of it. That was just downright noise, pure and unadulterated. But mamma fondly hopes it may grow into music some day. And so it´s one - two - three four; one - two - three - four, for me. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
