No, no, Cindy! Put a little oomph into it. Look happy. You're not walking in your sleep, you know. At this rate we're never going to get this play out. The Man Who Never Got to Dinner-that is what we'll have to call this play. Mr. Ralph Bielenberg quietly sits down and awaits Cindy's entrance. Cindy walks slowly onto the stage. Everything is silent. She looks hesitant. Now, what was it he said? Oh yes, rhapsodize-what's that? The audi- torium is suddenly filled with her cry as she jumps up, lifting her arms high above her head. Now let's singl she screams. Chin up. Rhapsodizel Improvise! Look jubilant! I want a little gusto in your voice. Throw yourself into it. Raise your arms to the sky.
