The current hit Broadway play, "Waiting For Godot" has inspired me to write a screenplay I've entitled "Waiting For Bahbee". Since all the characters are fictional and have not yet 'come alive', come with me into the depths of my imagination for a condensed version of "Waiting For Bahbee".
The central character is a young female, Bernadette Godiva Hall. I'm seeing her as a tall, olive-skinned, dark-haired beauty. She will be unaware of her classic beauty but those around her will be besotted with her at all times. When she makes her first appearance, in the last half of the first act, it will be a noisy, almost shrieking entrance, as she has long been living in a warm, dark climate - most likely the Rain Forest region of Central America. Her parents are internationally acclaimed mathematicians and physicists who are teaching abroad for a Big Ten University, striving to bring math and sciences to the Amazon natives. She has an older brother, Thaddeus Lombard Vincent Hall who has demonstrated great skill as a concert pianist at a very young age. When TLVH is not playing the piano, he is playing on his Central American Youth softball team, or taking helicopter flying lessons. Her other, slightly older brother's name is Davidson, David for short. David excels at linguistics, even at his young age and is also an accomplished mountain climber.
Bernadette Godiva Hall, affectionately known as BGH to her family and friends, has her parents to thank for her stunning looks and great intellectual capacity. Her physicist father is also fluent in Pennsylvania Dutch and is a world-renowned trainer of English Springer Spaniel dogs. Her mother, besides being a gifted mathematician, is the president and CEO of several start-up, online businesses that are internationally recognized.
"Waiting For Bahbee" is a screenplay that has been a work in progress for about nine months now and I expect it will be finished within the next seven to ten days.
Stay tuned to my blog for further updates on "Waiting For Bahbee" and the next installment in the life of BGH as my screenplay 'comes to life'.
