The Alien and the Robot Meet the Farm People in the City.
Act I
Scene I: Outer space. The alien is jettisoned from his home planet. [seems like the Superman story]
and meets a robot and an astronaut floating around in outer space too. The astronaut takes them to his home planet (earth) and they go to the city.
Scene II: The city: They see a taxi and a bus. People are afraid of the alien... and he smells.
Intermission: we go eat lunch.
Act II
Scene I: The city: The alien and the robot run away from the people just before a catastrophe occurs somewhere uptown.
Scene II: The road: The alien and the robot are lost and trying to find their way to the farm where the robot thinks he's from. they come across a castle with a moat and a dragon. There the king and queen with glow in the dark crowns make them some soup.
They meet the knight. But then the dog comes and tells them where the farm is so they have to leave.
Act III
Scene I: Home at last the robot feels safe and tries to make the alien feel at home. But when the alien eats the cow with the pink spots, the robot decides to make the alien take a bath. The soccer ball sun goes down, the ghost moon comes out and they are left sitting in the barn drawing plans for a space ship.
[Simon had names for everyone, but I can't remember them all... gorgol the alien or something... blut the robot. Here he is making wonderful things and flying around in his imaginings.]
the director in a more pensive moment, just before curtain time, wondering if he can actually pull this all off.
