I dream a production of All My Sons is to open at school in a week. It has yet to be cast and it does not have a director. I try to convince Bea Arthur to direct. Bea doesn’t want to do it in one week, so I’m stuck with it myself. The students are reluctant to audition because they want to do something funnier. I assure them that Arthur Miller is hilarious.

I dream I go to New York with various actor friends to audition for an interactive show in which the flip of a coin determines each line. I feel positive at the audition, which is held in a big banquet room in the middle of some sort of affair. On my way to the appointment, I go to a cold cut tray and fix the director a sandwich. I give her the sandwich and a resume and we talk for a few minutes. I think she likes me.

I dream I am in France directing a play and the people are rude to me. I am particularly miffed when I visit an actress I’m attracted to. Her boyfriend kicks me out of their house and makes me carry a metal rod with a diaper hanging on the end. I am carrying the rod and diaper all over France wondering what to do. Finally, I go back to the actresses’ house to return the rod and diaper and there is a party going on. A guy with a mustache invites me in but I beg another engagement.
