(Scene opens with two actresses warming up for an audition. They are doing vocal and dance warm ups. This should be a funny moment of these two girls looking at each other, watching, surveying sizing up the competition. The girls are clearly taking these warm ups serious, maybe a bit too serious.)
Liza: Hi.
Nicole: Hi.
Liza: What part are you auditioning for?
Nicole: Kelly, the wife.
Liza: You are?
Nicole: Yes. Why do you say it like that?
Liza: (Laughs) I just don’t see her as-
Nicole: - black?
Liza: Well she is supposed to be able to speak Spanish.
Nicole: No actually the audition sides say (Reading) “With an accent, possibly Spanish.” See the word “possibly” on the sheet? That means that there is also a “possibility” that they won’t use the accent.
Liza: Whatever. (Liza turns away, under her breath) “Ell cree que va a conseguir esta parte esta complamente loco.”
Nicole: No, actually I don’t think I’m going to get this part and I’m not crazy. I’m here to audition and if I get it great, if I don’t so be it.
Liza: (Speechless) You know Spanish?
Nicole: Yes, quite well. (With attitude) “I’m no es loco.” (They give each other a hard look then both bust out into a huge laugh. They hug.)
Liza: You are absolutely crazy.
Nicole: We both are.
Liza: If the casting director could see our audition in the lobby we’d always get the part.
Nicole: Every time.
Nicole: I can’t believe neither one of us got that show.
Liza: Right. What could they possibly have wanted? They had a Hispanic Hotness and a -
Nicole: Nubian Queen. (They laugh. Nicole looks through some papers) You will never guess…
Liza: White girl?
Nicole: No.
Liza: Asian?
Nicole: Nope.
Liza: Drag queen. (They both laugh)
Nicole: I could see the headlines now, “Introducing The Queen and The King: A Musical” hell nowadays that show is probably in the works. But seriously who go it? (She shows her the paper)
