Escapoligist Lines Flashcards
Acrobat: they performed some the most incredible feats together and people would come for miles around
Kings, Queens, celebrities, and astronauts. And not just to see their skill but also they’re loved for one another.
Acrobat: they moved into a beautiful, old house-
(13 measures of music)
and although they loved each other-they were sad.
Acrobat: but the one thing…
We do not have a child.
Acrobat: The burning woman hurling through the air with dynamite in her hair over sharks and spiky object objects…
Caught by the man locked in a cage.
Acrobat: and it is the most dangerous feat ever known to man
It is our destiny.
(Matilda): everything was arranged by the acrobat’s sister – a frightening woman who used to be in an Olympic class hammer thrower, and who loved nothing better than to scare the children of the town. Suddenly, came out the escapologist .
ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls… The burning woman hurling through the air with dynamite in her hair over sharks and spiky objects, caught by the man locked in a cage… has been… Canceled
Mrs. Phelps: No!
canceled because my wife… Is pregnant.
Acrobat: smile – we have done this a thousand times.
First I escape from the cage, lean out, catch you with one hand, grab the fire extinguisher with the other, and put out the flames on your special designed dress before they reach the dynamite and blow off your head!
Matilda: in the art beat her, and threw her into a dank, dark, dusty seller, lock the door and went out.
Have I been so wrapped up in my own grief for my wife that I have forgotten the one thing that mattered to us most? I love you so much, I shall spend every day of my life making it up to you.
Matilda: But when the little girl fell asleep, the escapologist’s thoughts turned to the acrobat’s sister.
Bullying children is her game, is it? Then let us see what she can do when the wrath of a grown man stands before her!
