Stand in the shadows… effect a perfect rendition…
When the final notes of the act the prima donna sings…
…remember… it is time to exit off the wings…
… lend the hand where needed… render them pert and ready…
… a living cue card always be… prompt every performer needy…
… a knot, brush, stich or a pin … a helper there where
necessary…
… the pat on the back, the invisible hands that hoist or
carry…
… ere the applause begins… get set for the next flight…
… a bow in the shadows… beware of the passing limelight…
… do, be done and disappear… never a backward glance…
… melodramatics floods the stage… flee while there’s still a
chance…
