In Keith’s words.

“Using this photo as inspiration, write a short story, flash fiction, scene, poem; anything, really; even just a caption for the photograph. Either put it (or a link to it) in a comment or email it to me at keithchanning@gmail.com before 6pm next Sunday (if you aren’t sure what the time is where I live, this link will tell you). If you post it on your own blog or site, a link to this page would be appreciated, but please do also mention it in a comment here.

Go on. You know you want to. Let your creativity and imagination soar. I shall display the entries next Monday.”

Kreative Kue #255

“Well, we finally made it to Broadway.”

“Oh, my goodness. What a trip it has been.”

“You are so right, sister. We have come a long way.”

“Did you ever think we would be here one day?.”

“Not even in my wildest dreams.”

“When I was a little girl, I used to dance and sing and pretend to be on Broadway.”

“Me too. That’s amazing. We had the same thing going on.”

“I used to put on shows for my family. I even had a cardboard sign with Broadway written on it.”

“Oh, that sounds cute.”

“I would charge my family a penny for the show.”

“Hahaha. I would probably have had to pay my family to attend, so I never mentioned a price.”

“So now we are here. What is the first thing we should do?”

“We need to find an agent.”

“Yeah, and then some auditions.”

“How about an apartment?”

“And some food.”

“Uh, ladies?”

“What?”

“Yes?”

“I think we better get jobs.”

“Buzzkill.”

  1. Thanks, John. I noticed some of the restaurants in the area had performing waiters earning the money they needed to survive at the same time entertaining the clientele and hoping, no doubt, to be spotted.

  11. There is always that level-headed person in the group, eh? (And thank goodness for that because sometimes, the fantasy takes over).
    I love your Kreative Kues…

    1. Thank you, Dale. I remember the level headed ones in College. “No we are not getting in the car and driving to Hyannis Mass to say hi to John F. Kennedy. Besides none of us can drive. We are too drunk.”

  15. Hollywood and NYC fill the dreams of so many hopeful performers. You captured the energy well…and that fateful down-to-earth moment. 🙂
