ACT 1 SCENE 2

Kirumi Tojo:
Yes, you did so well. He will be pleased.

(Kirumi turns to look at the dancers)

And you! You were a disgrace tonight! Such ronds de jambe! Such temps de cuisse! Here we rehearse. Now!

(Kiyotaka slowly makes his way out of the crowd into a dark room. He notices a figure in the mirror)

Mondo Owada:
Bravo, bravo.

(Kaede comes down the stairs and sees Taka talking his mother's portrait next to a candle)

Kaede Akamatsu:
Where in the world have you been hiding? Really, you were perfect! I only wish I knew your secret, who is your teacher?

Kiyotaka Ishimaru:
Mother once spoke of an angel, I used to dream she'd appear. Now as I sing I can sense her, and I know he's here!
Here in this room, she calls me softly, somewhere inside, hiding. Somehow I know she's always with me.
She's the unseen genius.

Kaede Akamatsu:
Kiyotaka, you must have been dreaming. stories like this can't come true. Taka, you're talking in riddles and it's not like you...

Kiyotaka Ishimaru:
Angel of music! Guide and guardian! Grant me to your glory.

Kaede Akamatsu:
Who is this angel? This angel of music? Hide no longer, secret and strange angel...

Kiyotaka Ishimaru:
He's with me, even now.

Kaede Akamatsu:
Taka, your hands are like ice!

Kiyotaka Ishimaru:
All around me...

Kaede Akamatsu:
Your face, Taka, it's sheet white!

Kiyotaka Ishimaru:
It frightens me...

Kaede Akamatsu:
Don't be frightened!

(they both arrive in the dormitories)

Kirumi Tojo:
Kaede Akamatsu, are you a dancer?! Then come practice!
My dear, I was asked to give this to you.

(she passes Kiyotaka a note and he opens it)

Kiyotaka Ishimaru:
A purple scarf... the attic... Little Lotte?
