 Odell Park, Fredericton – The Shadow Cow Returns – Fifth Wall Pt.II
X enters carrying a black box, seeing the audience he stops immediately. / {SNIP} / X looks at the shape the boxes have made. |
 X introduces the “Elephant” in the room – French Fort Cove, Miramichi – The Shadow Cow Returns – Fifth Wall Pt.II
“Elephantidae (eh·luh·fan·tuh·dee) are a family of large, herbivorous mammals collectively called elephants and mammoths. These are terrestrial large mammals with a snout modified into a trunk and teeth modified into tusks. Most genera and species in the family are extinct. Only two genera, Loxodonta (African elephants) and Elephas (Asiatic elephants), are living.
… quoted from everyone’s favourite source of trusted information, Encyclopedia Brittanica!—the 1979 printing, I believe.” |
 X sings – Odell Park, Fredericton – The Shadow Cow Returns – Fifth Wall Pt.II
X rolls over in a pseudo-collapse, only to erupt into song:
As he saw his life run away from him, thousands ran along / Chanting words from a song / Please me have no regrets (repeated x3) / Came from the baby’s mouth
X dances off stage singing “THE CURTAIN” by PHISH
OR
X collapses as stage goes dark.
