How to Be an Entertainer Workshop #2, Caritas, 05.31.06, Afternoon

[bluth-illusions.livejournal.com]

GOB stood up on stage and began to speak when the group was assembled. "Okay, kids, last week you picked out your entrance music. So today, we're going to start with you taking the stage to it and introducing yourself. You might be wondering why you didn't you introduce yourself last week. That's because last week you were nobody. This week, you have entrance music. That gives you the potential to be somebody."

"Give your music selections to Mr. Tino over there and prepare to make a grand entrance. Your entrance is what makes you a star. When you come on stage, you have to own the stage. Dance moves, quick illusions, taking your pants off, whatever you have to do to get the audience under your thrall." Tino whispered something to GOB. "Good call, Tino. Don't take your pants off during a school-sponsored workshop. Own the stage without losing any clothing. And if you can own the stage successfully, the audience is your whore. So have the band play your music, try to make us your whore, and tell us a little about yourself."

"When we're all done with that, we're going to focus on improv comedy. You'll pair up with whoever, get up there, and try to make me laugh. If I laugh, you'll get a free drink from the bar!" Tino leaned over and whispered something. "Really? Fine. Mr. Tino wants me to let you know that it should be something non-alcoholic. Mr. Tino here says that if I give you free booze, the school might have problems with that. Personally, I think he's being a jerk, but I like you nobodies enough that I'm not going to risk getting pulled from the class."

"Okay, let me go and introduce myself, then you can follow suit."

"We sort of had one last week, but it was a mess," Tyler said honestly. "I was thinking of doing a real one Friday. Does that work?"

"Fine by me. I just have to be back here by five to open the bar," GOB said.

Tyler nodded. "We can meet in the gym anytime after lunch. I'll put up some signs around campus."

He thought for a moment. "The cheerleaders already have uniforms."

GOB looked around. No hookers around. No ninjas around. "Nice."

"Okay, then, I'll see you guys on Friday."

"Very nice. See you," Tyler agreed, and ambled out of the bar.
