Milty's Mag Page ten __________________________________________ The third set is a tremendous, inspiring spectacle. The hero, the parasite from the upper levels, has joined forces with the workers, and has rescued the girl from the evil clutches of the Mad Scientist. A mob of workers mob the evil robot, and it burns, screaming with joy. Now comes the revolution. The Masses gather from all sections of the underground city, and commence the long, slow climb upward, demolishing every resistance in their path. The Capitalists above try to foil them by letting open the water pipes, and flooding the upper levels, but the Hero and Heroine save the women and children, and the Workers take care of themselves, and everybody gets up to Safety (two counters past young ladies corsets). The Capitalists, seeing defeat, grovel in the dust and beg for mercy, but they are all cut down, every one of them. Finally, with blood running in the streets like borsht, or did we say that already, the act closes triumphantly with everybody, including the audience, standing up, fists clenched above their heads, singing the Internationale in Esperanto. Boy, did I fool you people. That wasn't really the last act. That was the way Wollheim dreamt it after falling asleep. What really happened was much different. The third act is a tremendous, inspiring spectacle. The Hero, the parasite from the upper levels, has joined forces with the workers, and has rescued the girl from the evil clutches of the Mad Scientist. A mob of Workers mob the evil robot, and it burns, screaming with joy. Now comes the revolution. The Masses gather from all sections of the underground city, and commence the long, slow climb upward, demolishing every resistance in their path. But things are happening elsewhere. The machines, having neen left out of control by the revolutioning workers, are running wild. Faster and faster they go, and smoke and flame belch from all corners of the stage, while floods of water gush gurglingly from one side to the other, women and children dashing frantically to and fro. But the Workers go on with their Revolution The Hero and Heroine rush into the machine rooms to quiet the machines, but they don't want to quiet. Things work up to quite a terrible climax, and just at about the moment you are getting sick and tired of it all, everything blows up in one huge smash! Workers, Capitalists, stage, opera, and Convention. The End. dcon42dcon42dcon42dcon42dcon42dcon42dcon42 DCon
