Guess What Happened To Me Tonight

Guess what happened to me tonight. I went the Brave New Workshop to see their christmas show. During the intermission I went out to the lobby to get a drink. When I came back to my seat (just before the show started again) one of the actors tapped me on the shoulder. "Can I talk to you for a minute?" He asked. Then he led me out to the hallway. As I followed him I thought I was in kind of trouble. I thought someone was going to throw me out of the theatre. Nothing could be farther from the truth. He needed a volunteer from the audience so asked me if I would do it. I foolishly said yes. the first thing we did after I was called up to the stage was a skit about sled safty. We sat down on the stage as if we were on a sled. The next thing I knew his legs were wrapped around me. So we were sleding and then got hit by a truck and rolled around the stage like a couple of dead bodies after being run over. After that we all sang The 12 Days of Christmas. There are two versions of that song. The first one which they did in the first act is basically all the things that your mother screams at you on Christmas. The second version which I sang with them was all the things that your father screams at you on Christmas. We all sang in unison but at certain points everybody has a solo and they scream something funny that you would expect your father scream at you. Now my fear was that everybody would just stop singing and look at me expecting me to know what to say. My fears were put to rest when Mike pulled a piece of paper out of his pocket. My line was written on it. The line that I shouted loud and proud was "Do you wanna see a dead body?!" After the show people in the audience who I didn't know at all came up to me and said "good job Eben". Some of them asked me if I was really a volunteer or a plant. All in all it was a fun evening.
