[This scene is about a girl and boy leaving a small town in Norway. In hopes for serenity.
The cast sits amongst the real ‘ audience ’ expressing intimacy in the auditorium as if the existing audience were not there.
It’s 1977. The curtains are drawn. There are two ambient souls, eloping amidst a setting sun. The man and woman clothes stray in the wind; losing sight of time in their car.}
Arkin: Wow so…I never knew love existed.
Ethereal: (nervously laughs) I didnt either as it stands, but this has to be it…
[They turn simultaneously. Their eyes meet. The stage light gradually lightens.]
Arkin: i… [simataneously speaks Ethereal]
Ethereal: so…
{audience starts clapping the audience is in extreme awe}
Ethereal: Where to now?
Arkin: Wherever, where is…is nice. As long as im with you.
Ethereal: (blushes) Hilarious but…Shrek had a happily ever after, so why cant we?
Arkin: Depends…do you really love me?
Ethereal: [holding hands] To the moon and back, Arkin.
[They look ahead. The lights turn a radiant orange. Looking cautiously as if something awe’s them.]
Arkin: Then we’ll get our ever, and ever after.
[They depart on the horizon. A long road. Tall green pine trees. The sun is setting among the crevices of the road.]
Ethereal: look—the sky is…it’s beautiful.
