Everybody’s waiting, holding their breaths, whispering to each other…

Meanwhile, backstage, CHAOS!

“What we do?”

“Get him up! Get him UP!”

“I’m trying, there’s no connection!”

“What does that mean?”

“He’s dead.”

“Dead, dead?”

“Dead, Dead, DEAD.”

“Now what!”

“Somebody has to get him off stage.”

“How?”

“How do you think? Drag him.”

“Who?”

“Him!”

“NO! Who drags him off stage?”

“Well, this is your circus, I guess that means it’s YOU.”

“But it will be humiliating.”

“Sure will. You want music?”
