He walked into the Theatre... the most
obvious thing noticed was the eye patch, of course. Then as he moved
closer, and our eyes got accustomed to his form - we could see he was carrying
weapons. The curl of the whip, as it was attached to his belt immediately
caught my eye. Then Fanci` noticed the guns...she smiled softly, as she
informed him of the Theater policy of no weapons in the theatre proper.
His movements were very smooth, as he
complied and checked in his weapons. I noticed how precise yet casual his
moves were - the signs of a trained professional. He went to one of the
more quiet tables, and as the serving girl approached him, he ordered chili -
the hottest we could offer. I looked to Fanci, and with an arched eyebrow
wondered if we should get the fire extinguisher ready. She laughed softly, and
went to talk to this strange man.
As the discussion ensued, more of us got
involved - as we listened to his ideas... His energy level was very high, yet
very controlled. The smile that rarely touched his eye, was a
delight to behold. As he brought different scenarios to life, we found
ourselves sharing in them.. and learning from him. One
of Scarron's most enjoyable pastimes that we all enjoy is his appreciation for
origami. These are samples of some of the creations he has made in the
Theatre:
And one day... being creative.
