The World Is Upside Down(Original Broadway Cast Recording)

barrie: welcome my friends

glad you could join me on this most auspicious day

i hope you'll forgive mistakes and errors

we're just getting underway

you may recognise some of the scenes

you all played a part

in sowing the seeds

'cause there is magic in the imagination

just believe and it can be a creation

the stories we invented

all the fun that we found

appearing here before your eyes

the world is upside down

miss bassett: our characters

miss jones: nibs and tootles...?

miss bassett: what is their movitation?

because you see, i have to live and breathe my part, drawing from my own life experience...

barrie: nibs is a lost boy.

miss bassett: lost, good, interesting.

miss jones: yes...

miss bassett: that i can use

miss jones: good, right.

miss bassett: is he lost in an emotional purgatory?

...or lost in an existential search for himself!

miss jones: yes!

barrie: no, he's just lost

miss bassett: good heavens!

where, when, and how?

barrie: do you have experience being lost?

miss bassett and miss jones: we're experiencing it now

mr. henshaw: dogs!

miss potter: boys!

mr. cromer: flying!

miss bassett: lost!

frohman: so...

actors: frustration!

barrie and boys: believe and it can

actors: no!

barrie and boys: be a creation

miss bassett: actors don't fly

mr. cromer: because actors could die!

boys: start by saying i can do

and then you could try!

miss jones: i can't!

miss potter: i won't!

mr. turpin: not me!

actors: there is no magic in your imagination

i do not believe in your new creation

this disaster is all due to your play

this could be my last first day

mr. cromer: nauseous!

miss potter: anxious...

mr. henshaw: my reputation!

miss bassett and miss jones: playing lost?

actors: get lost!

serious actors cannot work this way!

frohman: a positive start!

actors: the world is upside down!
