Download Posing as People: Three Stories, Three Plays AudioBook Free
Science fiction is rare in theatrical form, but withPosing As People, three unforgettable sci-fi storiesby Orson Scott Card are adapted into powerful stage plays by three different writers. "Clap Hands and Sing" shows us a lonely, but rich and powerful, old man who may have only 1 wish before he dies: To return with time and take an opportunity for love that he once let slip by. But what will it do to the young girl who used to love him? "Lifeloop" pretends to be reality TV 24 hours per day. In fact, they're really actors. However when your character is you, with no break, how exactly have you got a "real" life? And how can a fellow actor let you know that he loves you, when that's the actual script also demands him to state? "Sepulchre of Songs" is about a heartbreakingly lovely girl who lost her legs and arms many years ago, and today yearns to be free, not only of the others home where she lives, but of her body. May be the alien being who would like to trade places with her real or the product of her own imagination? And can her therapist's growing love for her keep her from fleeing, either into space or the darkrecesses of her own mind? Posing As People includes performances of the plays as well as readings of the initial stories.
