Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The College Chums [At rise of curtain, Wilde is heard singing (off) in maudlin fashion, then enters, lugging a barber pole. He advances to center stage and sets it upright. The bottom of pole should be sufficiently weighted to permit his leaning against it without its toppling over. He leans against the pole, gives vent to a silly laugh, which is checked by a sharp hiccough. He then fishes a cigarette from coat pocket and puts it in mouth, after comedy biz of trying to locate mouth, then searches pockets for a match as he begins speech, leaning against pole.] Tom. - I told the doctor I wasn´t feeling well and he told me to take something. So I did. I took a few highballs. (Laughs). Then as a chaser I took this dear old barber pole, so I would have something to lean the poor highballs against when the earth began to do a two-step, barn dance and Indian dances, which the said earth did about 15 minutes ago. I don´t like that barber anyhow. He´s got a double chin, both of which are devoted to conversation. Then this morning he told me he´d give me two dollars to paint this pole. I told him I would but I didn´t have any striped paint. (Laughs, then sudden check with hiccough). I was standing down at the corner a few minutes ago, and a stranger came up to me and said, Young man, give me $10.00 and I´ll have the janitor of that tall building turn it around for you. Go on and run along, I says, I owe that janitor $40.00 already. (Almost falls, but grabs pole and swings around it).
