THE KINDNESS OF STRANGERS

(SUNG BY: Elizabeth and Company boys)

(Elizabeth portrays Blanche to Jack’s Mitch.  Upstage, Tom and Allen, covered in a comforter, portray a "bed".)

JACK (as Mitch)
"Blanche Dubois, I would like very much to thank you for a wonderful time tonight."

ELIZABETH (as Blanche)
"I, myself, have experienced a most memorable evening of moonlight and magic."

JACK (as Mitch)
"You don't understand Blanche. Tonight has been pretty boring so far...I would like very much to thank you for the wonderful time you're about to show me."

ELIZABETH (as Blanche)
"Why Mitch? Is this a clumsy proposal of marriage?"

JACK (as Mitch)
"After what Stanley told me about your wild carrying-ons, I don't think I want to marry you!"

ELIZABETH (as Blanche)
"You get out of here, you sick and evil man. You get out of here! Get out! Get out!"

(Jack crosses upstage, puts a lamp shade oh his head, becoming a "lamp", next to "the bed".)

(BOYS)
Oh oh oh, Oh oh oh, Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh...

(Boys shed furniture disguise to dance with Blanche.)

(BOYS)
Oh oh oh, Oh oh oh, Oh...oh

Blanche, take care
Brush your hair
Suitor's comin' 'round the bend

Don't fret, forget
You're in danger

Gosh you're fine
Please be mine
Dance with me, I'll be your friend

You'll find, I'm kind
I'm a stranger!

(ELIZABETH)
A single girl
Alone in the world
Must keep a firm hold
On her emotions

Must pamper herself with lotions...
To preserve her romantic notions...

But, love's not in a bottle
In life you'll find a lot'll

Depend on who- you- meet!

I've always depended upon
The kindness of strangers
A hunky forest ranger just might do!

(BOYS: Spoken)
"The man who works construction..."

(ELIZABETH: Spoken)
"Will succumb to my seduction..."

(BOYS: Spoken)
"The man who sells insurance..."

(ELIZABETH: Spoken)
"Gonna have to have endurance..."

(BOYS: Spoken)
"There's a sexy neuro-surgeon..."

(ELIZABETH: Spoken)
"My libido is emergin'..."

(ALL)
Un-employed, get overtime!

(ELIZABETH)
I've always depended upon
The kindness of strangers
A frisky music arranger to see me through!

(ELIZABETH: Spoken)
"Professor?"

(Dance break.)

(ELIZABETH)
I could sure get used to this
I forgot how much I miss strangers
I forgot how much I miss...

The kindness-

Of-

Stran-gers!

Do da le do do...do da le do do...

(Boys return to being furniture.)

(ELIZABETH)
Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye, bye bye!
