Track 04 – Theatre Business

Scene change to the Eastern Theatre

Manager:

Welcome back, Aaron, Yingli. We all missed you here, and you came just in time! We were just working on producing a show, and we needed some talent on the stage.

Aaron:

Hah, that will be us then!

Manager:

Thank you, Aaron. Yingli, the Lu Family coordinated with us to have you on for two shows. Come, let’s get you two backstage so we can talk more about this.

Aaron (narration):

Next month, the theatre will be putting on shows for two weeks, Yingli will be performing on the weekends and I will perform on the weekdays.

Manager:

Aaron, we would need to get you another understudy, since Yingli debuted, she has her own roles to take care-

Yingli:

Please excuse me for interrupting, manager! I believe I am still capable of handling my roles and performing in Aaron’s place, should he need it.

Manager:

That is way too much work-

Yingli:

Please give me a chance!

Aaron:

Hey hey, don’t push yourself, hot stuff.

Yingli:

… – heh? Oh no! I apologize for being rude, manager. I don’t know what came over me!

Manager:

That is okay, as long as you’re not overwhelmed, then we will keep the status quo with the current arrangements, what do you think, Aaron?

Aaron:

I would rather not have anyone replace Yingli, if she can handle it, then I don’t have a problem.

Yingli:

Thank you so much!

Aaron:

We’ll come back tomorrow morning to rehearse.

Manager:

That sounds good, bye now.
