LQ 100 - BO performers enter, stand under light LQ 101 - type type type and freak out SQ 1 - SQUEAK (under the light) ​​They both go to the microphones LQ 102 - up on mics when i got the thing that makes *the noise* it made the thing i was doing so much more fun. when it makes a sound, i love it more. i love the sound, the love, the relationship. all we feel is love when we are alive but we think it is something else and get sad about it. but it's all love, everything we feel in what we do and who we meet and the plants we see the plans we make. it's orbs and radiations of love and light and bright and yet here i am in this dark room with nothing to do but think about the impossibility of the synchronizing of our hearts because our hearts are individual and they can't speak. we speak. Cosi drags on traffic cone & sits on it LQ 103 - traffic cone why ouchie. how did that get up there? all the way up there. wow. i'm so proud of my self. i did that. all by myself. just me! a deep laugh turns to a sob. Cosi runs over and Travis embraces them LQ 104 - hug upstage - need to build what's the matter? what is it? Cosi does a lip trill, Travis responds and they both walk to the mics, then pick up phones LQ 105 - mics again Happy Friday, looking forward to seeing you! Yeah, can we actually do like Tuesday? No, I can't do Tuesday. How about Wednesday. I can't do Wed. Are you free tonight? No sorry, how about Thursday? No I can't do Thursday either... ya know what... I don't think this schmuck is worth the trouble. Listen, I don't think this going to work I didn't think it would either... ok...enjoy what remains of your life SQ 2 - “Enjoy what remains of your life” —> All the singllingles LQ 106 - (with SQ 2 - dance) BO and bump LEDs They go back to the mics LQ 107 - back to mics T: - you know that feeling when your estimate is exactly correct? that's amore! - a cool breeze on a hot summer day. that's amore! - a surprise discount, applied at checkout. that's amore! - finding a new way to crack your knuckles or your elbow or knee / a new leaf on your house plant. that's amore! - when you overhear some juicy drama at a restaurant or bar. that's amore! - when you reject the things you cannot accept - when you reject the things you cannot change - when you reject the difference . that's amore! LQ 108 - (lighter moment) (front center light up) anyway, thank you all for coming out tonight... up next we're going to do steve reich's clapping music They both do it. Cosi gives up and grabs a cigarette. Travis waltzes over and knocks the cigarette out of Cosi’s mouth smoking is not permitted indoors That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard...do we have any snacks? how about this: you could have one marshmallow right now, or cosimo if you can wait until the end of the performance you can have two marshmallows, and the whole audience can also have one marshmallow each. but only if you wait. fuck your marshmallows! SQ 3 - “fuck your marshmallows” LQ 109 - (with SQ 3) (BK) Loud rock music plays, Cosi stuffs their shirt filled with marshmallows LQ 110 - (back to mics - wah wah wah wah) "haven't you had enough?" I say to myself. If I stop right now, I will gain experience in willpower. Experience points. I might level up, or some call it maturing. Self-control is a emotional muscle that needs to grow and build and get stronger, it is not a rubber band or a tendon that stretches and pulls until it snaps. that would be ridiculous, that would mean that you are not in control. that some things aren't your fault—but everything is. wahh wahh, boo hoo. i can't get what i want x4 [to the audience] all together! wahh wahh, boo hoo. i can't get what i want x3 SQ 4 - 7th wah wah - (4 to each other, 3 to audience, then interrupt) LQ 111 - (with SQ 4) (bright as possible) The Benny Hill track interrupts. LQ 112 - (whisper with backs to audience) (HS) Travis and Cosi huddle and whisper secrets, then twist over the left shoulder to say we’re asking ourselves the age old question of sex. what does it feel like? They both slowly walk back to the mics what's that famous quote: if you go home with someone and they don't have: - a copy of laurie anderson's big science - some of those high-heeled feet - if you don't see any of those baggy pants don't have sex with them? They high-five i really have to wonder, every time i take a pill, What happens if i take... more than what i am supposed to? will it cure my [pause] loss, could i lose a toe, might i never get scurvy again? ? can i turn, into a flintstone? so true bestie! it's like lana del rey said myself is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to be but everyone else is taken when he said he didn't love me. i felt that right here. well it wasn't that he didn't love me he just didn't want to go on a second date. but now i don't feel heartbroken at all. in fact i can tell you more about what i am not right now than what i am. i am not heartbroken. i don't feel lost. i am not hungry. i am so hungry. and this is new york. you've gotta dance for your dinner—and let me tell ya. i'm dancing as fast as i can ! i'm dancing as fast as i can !! Travis pushes Cosimo out of the way to stand center Personally, I hate work, but I love solving problems. For me, work is a conduit for getting the things that I want: enlightenment being the paramount and validation the secondary. Cosimo pushes Travis out of the way to stand center Just to piggyback off your earlier comment. I'd like to echo what you said, but a little more spicy. And this is just my opinion: there's only two types of jobs in this world: talking jobs or building jobs. And the funny thing is, when you're an LGBT, or an LGBTQ you already have a full-time job. And that's being gay. Couldn't have said it better myself! That's right folks, when you make the problem-solving the work, then you never bing-bong a day in your life! let's dance! They both stand at center dancing LQ 113 - (slow dance) (ARC or CTR) but we're in a fight. to see who can care less about our relationship, without it fully falling apart. i have a birthday soon. it feels like a trap i want to talk about how you're doing, but i dont wanna talk to— but i want to hear from— being apart can be a really good thing. Travis leaves so let's see where this goes. if I don't reach out to you, would we ever see each other again? the phenomenon of waking up in the morning, and thinking is this as good as it gets. is it fulfilling me the way that it should. by merely asking that question, it is its own answer. if it was giving me LIFE i wouldn't have to ask. and i'm not going to wait for the closure of anything. i'm going to take my closure—make my own closure! They both cheer. Travis grabs apples and the mic LQ 114 - (eating) (IQ - small iris) - need to build yeahh nothing like the joy, of biting into a crisp, perfectly tart but sweet apple ​​tell me something your mum doesn't know Cosi eats too much apple. Travis goes to a microphone, Cosi goes UL to dance HARD LQ 115 - (arm choreo) (open iris) - need to build [here's something my mum doesn't know.] i really am just fucking the text man for texts, eating, breathing, sleeping or staying awake late at night—for texts. i send a text as quickly as i can so i can get one back, but who knows when. i'm just living for texts. exercising for texts. texting for texts. but I'm not talking about all texts. the ones from special someones, i'm so eager, for those texts. texting for texts. waiting for texts. Travis runs to find the prop phone ive been waiting a looooong time for... this club to let me in. the test results to come back. the subway to come. waiting to to find the right time to tell you how i feel. to really feel that i have moved on. for you to make a move because you are just so hard to read and i am sending you all the signals. stop everything you're doing i have something extremely important i need to say They both sit down at center LQ 116 - (sit in center) (IQ down and iris in) - need to build yeah, so I'm really not happy with our relationship, and think I need some space to figure it out. SQ 5 - “I need some space to figure it out” And maybe I don't think I want us to have a relationship. Could you give me like a week, just to think? I may need more so don't expect to hear from me soon, but I want to give myself a week to think and really let my thoughts ruminate. Please, until I reach out, don't text me or call me. Or respond to anything I put online Just give me some time to think about if i want you in my life or if i don't And if you can't resist, i'll know you're actually worse than I ever thought you were because you didn't respect my boundaries. capiche? Cosi screams with their mouth closed. SQ 6 - “closed mouth scream” LQ 117 - (with SQ 6 - dance) (BO, t turns on clip light) Travis manipulates lights and Cosi dances Travis turns off the light, and places down the traffic cone LQ 118 - (take your order) (amber) here's your table, and your waiter will be over shortly. wait. can you take my order? Travis walks away but Cosi grabs T’s arm no Travis walks away, twirls, and takes off the wig hey what can i get started for you? just a plate of marshmallows for me! so sorry we're actually all out of the marshmallows OK. What can you get to me, quickly? The Special. LQ 119 - BO and immediately do manual FRT up? I'll take it. And I'll go to the restroom so perhaps when I come back, the food will be here, and it'll be as if I never even waited at all. Cosi gets up to piss and take off their wig. Travis truges over to the SL mic *MANUAL LQ - (t at mic - sad voice) (FRTs slow slow fade to the end) i just don't even know what anyone is ever talking about. Like with all these TV shows. And I just don't have time, to read (well I do). The problem is I don't even think I like reading, sitting around watching or listening or attending experiences...it all feels so compulsory...like reading a textbook...having to memorize why someone wanted to assassinate Otto von Bismarck...anyway...I wanna feel like I'm part of what's going on. How do people know all these movie quotes? When did everyone learn these song lyrics? I go to look things up but what do search for? I'm so out of the loop...and I'm so...dehydrated... Cosi walks over with two waters here. have a glass of water. i would just like to say that the only thing i like more than having nothing to do is having something to do. *MANUAL LQ - BO
