Playwright Portrait, Rinne Groff, Excerpt from Orange Lemon Egg Canary, 2008
Orange Lemon Egg Canary
the prologue.
Henrietta:
"Everybody loves magic. Everybody loves to be fooled, tricked. Everybody loves to be caught with their pants down. Everybody loves to be cheated and misled. Everybody loves it when someone lies to them. Especially when they watch that certain someone very closely and they’re trying to catch him in his lie, but he’s quick with the sleight of hand, too quick; and a girl is left feeling both stupid and angry, and third of all, empty. People love that."
