21 INT. THEATRE - DAY<br />

21 *<br />

- a scene from an anonymous film. Black and white, from<br />

... which is being watched, with delight, by KATHY, TOMMY,<br />

RUTH, ARTHUR, LAURA, and all other students in their year.<br />

As the moment of slapstick resolves, the kids all shout:<br />

STUDENTS<br />

The scene is rewound, and begins again.<br />
