This is the bat tape.
This is audio and channel 1 and 2 at 0vU.
This is tape number 3.
It's hour number 3 for sure.
Tom Fidri video for Theofilon Productions.
On we go.
It's 18 September 85.
Till now.
Uh oh, we're rolling tape now.
How'd that happen? Okay Brian, 25 words or less.
25 words or less.
Yeah, what is the bat about? What's the Flater mouse about? He's about a dead bat.
That's it? That's it.
You don't know the story at all? Good day.
No.
I don't know it.
No? Honest? Got a good shot? You really don't know, huh? No.
I don't know.
Not even a clue.
No clue.
No? Do you know what it's about? I don't have an idea myself.
Wanna make it up? No.
A dead flower.
A what? The Flater mouse is about a count.
The Flater mouse is about a count in upper society that he and his wife da da da da da.
I'm at a loss.
And I've seen it once.
They hold a mass ball, costume ball.
The count's wife dresses up in her costume.
Her maid dresses up in one of her old gowns.
And there's a mix up between the two.
And it's a comedy of errors, so to speak.
Thank you.
This way? Anyway.
This way? Anyway.
Okay, try that.
Yeah, go.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
One more time.
Okay.
Okay.
And back up.
Okay.
Okay.
That's five.
Okay.
That's one.
That's one.
Karen? Yeah? Upstairs.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Oh, just like that was that.
Keep painting.
Okay.
Okay.
Oh, yes.
Hello.
How are you? Hi.
I've seen you here a long time.
How are you? Good.
You? Good to see you.
Of course, in the time you've worked with them a long time.
Sure.
Hello.
Well, here we are.
Beauvoir.
Hello, how are you? How are you? Good.
Oh, my God.
That's what I say, oh, my God.
What are we supposed to look at? Look around, look at the drop.
Let's see.
Oh.
Oh, this is neat.
I don't remember this at all.
Hi.
You haven't met our doctor.
You're working here? Yes.
I just got done for you.
That's very nice.
Hello.
Hi.
How are you? All right.
I can't sit.
Well, you need some distance.
That's what I said you had to get over there and sit, I guess.
I shall take you to the story first.
Oh, dear.
That's wonderful.
I mean, if I could sit down there.
That's great.
Have you visited the festival? Yeah, it's been a great festival.
What are you doing? We're going to the Jazz Festival.
We'll go there soon.
Yes.
Oh, you can sit better now.
We use those doors.
No, no.
I think it's...
It's just beautiful.
I could wear one tonight.
Oh, my God.
Are you happy? Huh? Oh, it's very nice.
It's a beautiful show.
Very nice, yes.
I don't think we need more painting there.
Okay.
I think we could just let it like that.
On stage, we'll see if we need some kind of...
Pull the curtain in.
Why was the job never done before, do you know? Why the job was never done before? Why wasn't it built before? Why wasn't it made before? I don't know.
I was gross.
I was not there.
I guess I wasn't there.
I don't know why we never use it.
But I don't know how we use it.
It's for the in ones, isn't it? Yes.
You have scenes in one, and you have a pink curtain.
You use some curtain.
I'm sure you have this curtain.
Oh, instead of this.
Yes, but you have scenes in...
They enter to the ball, right? For those two acts, you have entrances there.
And do they come into the ball through these entrances? Yes.
Oh, no.
No, that's the pink curtain.
I can't wait to see this in Tulsa.
How it goes together.
Where are you going to go? Saturday.
A week from Saturday? No, Saturday, October 5th.
Oh, that's the day they do it.
Yes.
Pink curtain.
It's still there.
This curtain.
As soon as we start rehearsing.
That looks charming.
Check your make -up.
Check my make -up? Gorgeous.
This is really nice.
I'm probably going to get all over my white pants, am I? These are just beautiful.
Yes.
Do the others, are the others as colorful? No, it's more or less the same as the one before.
Because they were more abstract.
Right there.
Behind it in significant waves.
The bell.
I wish Larry would be there to...
Hmm? To realize that there's two doors to be used.
Used, yes.
Well...
Oh, the ground was...
Can you come up so they can see the ground now? That cracker.
Oh, God.
That cracker is coming up soon.
We had an audition for the children Sunday.
About five of the children were there and we had to pick 80 of them.
That was on television.
A little bit of it, yeah.
This is the back of the ballroom.
Oh, I see.
We never had that before.
No, it's to fill it in for television.
Instead of just jet black draperies behind it.
To fill in so it doesn't...
So it looks like they're at an actual location.
Uh -huh.
Wow.
It looks as though it's on television.
It must be real good.
It's standing in the wrong place again, right? Uh -huh.
Here's the base.
Can I give you a little more? Here's just a little bit more.
I took a doubt so that you could see a little more of the top.
Oh, thank you.
Here's the base.
Oh, yeah, perfect.
Uh -huh.
Would you like to see the top? Yes, yes.
I want to see the top.
Okay.
There you go.
Look at the hell it goes down, isn't it? Oh, it's big.
Oh, yes.
It's a good job.
Yes.
Uh -huh.
Good fun.
Well, there's Richard Nixon.
Right there.
It is.
Dali Parton's in some place.
Where is Dali Parton? We're not going to tell you.
Is she here? Can we see her? Is she visible? I may be good.
Let me move this card out of the way.
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
