My Dream Moment

by Jenna Kantor

You bet your butt I have a specific moment I dream about for when I get to be back on broadway (funny, I am already talking about it like I have already been on broadway). This clip from funny girl captures it perfectly. It’s when Barbra (Fanny) runs back into the theatre after she has been kicked out. She ends up on stage in a huge, empty theatre. It’s just her standing there - stage center - on a huge stage. … and she keeps on singing right there - center stage. There is a key thing that she doesn’t do that I would TOTALLY do once I was center stage. … and that is kiss the floor. I would totally kiss the floor. This is why I wouldn’t want anyone else to be there. I may get too embarrassed to actually follow through with the stage kiss. I don’t care if the stage is fuckin dirty! This is my dream and not yours, so leave me alone. I really would kiss the freakin floor. I’ve dreamed about this for a long time. When the moment happens, I will be in tears because I will be grateful. So, when you watch the video, in order to see “my moment,” you have to wait until you get halfway through the song. But it is worth seeing, simply so you can see what my dream is … so, what about you? We all have multiple dreams. Did one of yours come to mind when you read this? Don’t waste your time trying to analyze my personal dream. Take some time out for yourself and think of what you really want. It’s fun!
