::B4 sidles through the double-door, his arms laden with frood and dink, and makes his way back to his seat. He pauses momentarily to consider the ramifications of what it would be like to actually have a dual income, no kid family. While mulling that around, he munches on a few fries and takes a bite of the hotdog, dropping a few crumbs onto the napkin it's wrapped in. He takes a quick sip of his cola, sighs, and whistles a froody little tune as he finds the row containing his seat. He side-steps to the appropriate spot, checks to make sure he hasn't mistaken it for Amy the smiley - ant's chair, then plops himself down into it.::

Aah! Now this is a great way to bide the time until the next act. ::He turns to his right and whispers...:: Hey, Amy... Lil? This Panto's gettin' real close to bein' done, ain't it? I mean, I've truly enjoyed the whole thing...well, most all of it, anyway...but I've gotta think about when I should start making arrangements for catching the next flight outta here. Is there gonna be a Cast Party afterwards, or anything like that? I do want to get a couple of pictures, if I can get my camera back, and I'd like to personally thank each of the Cast for putting on such a wonderful production. So, once it all winds down, I have to make some quick calls to hit the return leg of the flight. I may have to reroute and it may take a bit longer, now the Concorde's relinquished it's route.

(B4 stands up from his seat and looks around the Audience, almost bashfully, then--without any apologies to the cat--launches into a poem of his own devising.)

"If all the world were made of cheese smiley - porkpie
smiley - spaceAnd we were all just mice, smiley - mousesmiley - esuomsmiley - mouse
smiley - spaceWe would do whatever we would please,
smiley - spaceNever thinking twice."

"There would be no cats smiley - cat to bother us;
smiley - spaceNo dogs smiley - dog to bark at all.
smiley - spaceNo people there to make a fuss,
smiley - spaceStanding up so tall."

"There would be no need for farmer's wives
smiley - spaceKnocking over pails,
smiley - spaceChasing us smiley - run with long, sharp knives
smiley - spaceFor cutting off our tails."

"We would do whatever we would please,
smiley - spaceNever thinking twice;
smiley - spaceIf all the world were made of cheese smiley - porkpie
smiley - spaceAnd we were all just mice!" smiley - mousesmiley - esuomsmiley - mouse

(He hesitates after the last stanza leaves his lips. He looks around, unsure if this was the right thing to do, then gives a little 'harumph' and sits back down.)

Just had to get that out of my system...

There's more action in the audience than there is on stage, that's for sure! Quite possibly more talent too.
