TRANSCRIPT 

 

MADONNA SPECTACLE

I’m competing in a tri-state drag pageant. There’s a huge, shiny, phallic trophy and I want it.

I sing “You’ll see”. I don’t lip-sync, I sing. It’s my thing.

I have no monitor! I gesture to the sound guy. I try to make the gesturing into a dance move. He

doesn’t get it. I forget my choreography. Now I’m singing out of key and trying to make up dance

moves. I forget the lyrics.

I kick the monitor. My heel breaks. I try to walk off, but suddenly my leg gives. I fall. My dress

tears. The audience laughs. Then Madonna appears to me in the wings:

 

MADONNA SPECTACLE AS MADONNA, WHISPERING

Madonna Spectacle... you don't need anyone at all!

 

MADONNA SPECTACLE

I have a flash of inspiration, and as I drag my sorry drag-queen ass off the stage, I shout:

 

MADONNA SPECTACLE, SHOUTING, TEARY EYED AND BROKEN*

I know I'll survive

I know I'll stay alive!

 

MADONNA SPECTACLE

They love me! They think it’s a comedy routine. I don’t get the trophy. I’m a genius. I’m not. I just

have a really cool guardian angel.
