Summary
"The text recalls that of [I was sitting on my] patio in its cryptic and fragmented style and its scrambled references to guns and murder. There are four speaking parts: Man on the bench, Woman in the black dress, Man on the rope, Woman in white dress. The set is an obelisk-like house on a mountain, viewed at a different time of night (evening, midnight, approaching dawn) in each part." -- Robert Wilson's vision.
