(MUSIC, LYRICS, & STAGING)

In A/I S/I As the curtain rises there is only a large white screen, as the movie starts we see Sam standing in the evening on a street waiting for Samantha. As Samantha approaches they run into each other’s arms, a shot is heard and Samantha falls to the ground. Now that his love is dead Sam is desperately seeking for the answer for that magic WHY? As he sings: “On a Sunday morning, we both met, at a gas station in Quebec, my eyes where lusty, when I saw her breasts, as my heart was pounding in my chest, before we knew our lips where wet, stuck together, like lovers in bed.” As he prays in church he sees statue of Mary losing its hallo and turning into Samantha. As he walks out of church reaching into his pocked and pulling out some M&M candies looking at two and stats singing: “Life’s two M&M’s, we made Money together and created Memories together”. Oh yea Money: ” Dollars, Rubles, Marks and Pounds. Franks, Shillings Guilds and Crowns. But memories is something the above can’t buy, today’s memories where yesterdays realities. He finally runs towards his car breaking his wrist.. Bleeding he gets into the car driving the car accidentally into a telephone poll. And ramming his head through the windshield.

In A/II S/II he starts singing “I feel like a compass needle that can’t resist to become Samantha. Thus placing both palms of his hands flat against the transition Wall. And pressing his lips in a kissing like manner against the T/W. As the spotlight goes off on one of his hands, the spotlight comes on the other side of the transition wall. On the same spot but with Samantha’s palm pressed against the transition wall. This transition happens in three stages. The two hands and the lips. Besides the gender change this is also the transition from the b&w film into Samantha appearing live on stage for the first time.

In A/III S/III As Samantha first area: "life a spark of beauty". As she walks through her room looking at picture of Sam looking at the calendar etc…She sings: "Feeling sweetness I hope will never and." She also remembers the time they argued and sings: "We argue and fight, and stay up all night, and do what's not right. We yell and scream to the highest extreme, but after a pause, a sorrowful thought a word or a deed, will make us think twice, and melt us like ice." After re-evaluating the situation she becomes doubtful about her past actions. When all of a sudden the heavens open up and she hear Angels sing: Time is nothing, competition is nothing, yes time for some people goes to fast for some to slow for others it stands still. Competing for someone's love or loosing it all means nothing. Only LIFE yes the spark of beauty life is everything. The curtain falls ending the opera with that final chorus.
