And I know that I speak for more than myself when I say that no one from Industrial Arts was ever given a fair shake to play the Lion. You know it, Linda, and I know it–
Jerry, when I’m wearing the slippers you have to call me Dorothy. We’ve talked about this, remember?
You’re abusing your power.
Why don’t you just come out with it, Jerry?
Fine. I think I’d make a better Cowardly Lion than Russ. He forgets his lines, his costume is too kitschy–
Hey! My wife made this costume, Jerry.
Well, I’m sorry, but it’s just not good enough for a faculty performance.
Oh, and your Dark Chrystal costume was “good enough” for last year’s show? Was it, Jerry?
Enough, both of you! Russ, Jerry’s right. You need to learn your lines. And Jerry, Russ won the part fair and square. Besides, you have two roles: Munchkin Mayor and Flying Monkey Commander.
They’re not leads.
Well, we’re not making birdhouses. We’re making theater. And if you don’t like it, there’s fifteen munchkins to take your place.
