WAYNE SLEEP (O.S.)
Hello Detroit!
INT. DETROIT OPERA HOUSE - SAME TIME WAYNE SLEEP is a short, gay, joyful British man in his fifties. He’s one of the hosts of this show. Right now he’s on stage talking to the people waiting to audition. There are CAMERA’S FILMING HIS SPEECH. WAYNE How many of you are sick of hearing the word no? Everybody cheers. WAYNE (CONT'D)
The world is full of “No”, isn't it? The London Royal Ballet told me no because I was too short. Well I showed them, didn’t I? The show that we are making today is about second chances. It’s about coming together to make something amazing. And what better place to do it than Detroit? A great American City with a rich musical history that could use a second chance!
MORE CHEERS!
WAYNE (CONT'D) So we have come here to say yes! Yes to dancing, yes to life being beautiful, yes to taking The Big Leap!
Everyone cheers. We FIND NICK SMART, 35, in the orchestra pit with MONICA SULLIVAN, 30. Nick is the Executive Producer of the show and is good looking but a little slick. Monica is a co-host and judge. A professional ballerina, she is beautiful, mean and intimidating. NICK Good turnout. What do you think? MONICA I think everyone in Detroit is obese and that this is going to be a disaster. BACK WITH WAYNE:
