Lewis Monologue, 10 Years Later:

The last ten years have been good, been great, actually. My career as a director has grown to another level. I was walking through the street on the weekend and ran into Ruth, the girl I met 10 years earlier when we performed Cosi with people from a mental asylum in an old theatre.

That was when I was straight out of university and was asked to help the (loonies) perform something. It was a unique experience in life that taught me a lot about others and what you should do to be a successful director.

It felt strange seeing Ruth, I really did miss the cast that performed cosi, it made me want to perform again with the same group and do another play. I was talking to Ruth and she said that she was now married and was hoping to have children soon. This brought tears of joy to my eyes, it was good to see she had moved on in life and found someone to share her love with.

To my surprise she said that she would love to, I thought she would say no instantly because of her past experience. She did announce though, that there would be problems getting the cast back together, this is when my heart skipped a beat. She explained that Henry had died soon after the play, (he was the weird lawyer. Julie had died of a drug overdose, this nearly brought be to tears, I still had feelings for her.

I don't know why, it had been ten years, buuttt ugh im lost. Then she explained how Zac, of all people started a rock band and had a minor hit, this made me feel good that some of the crazy nutcases had thought through their mental struggles to move on. Then there was Doug, of course he would have burnt down the theatre, he is a pyromaniac after all. What did I expect for him to leave ...
