ena: Excuse me, is this the New York School Opera? (In her mind the boy stopped dancing turned around and spoke)

Max: Lena?

Lena: Max? (I couldn't believe I was in front of Max).

Max: What are you doing here in New York?

Lena: I'm from the Paris Opera company and you were dancing, how is that possible?

Isaac: Are you the choreographer?

Max: No, I'm a dancer

Jeff: How is that possible you haven't fractured your knee?

Max: Yes, but when I got to New York, my father's friend told me about a surgery that could make him dance again and with the treatment he can dance again.

Thea: That's great Max

Max: I know and are they all from the Paris company?

Lena: No, Jeff just came to join us

Jeff: If I begged Miss Carré to let me go with them on tour, I told her that I could replace Isaac in case something happened

Max: Or I see I figured it out

Inés: And how long have you been in the New York company?

Max: For a couple of 6 months

Lena: Low voice) The same 6 months that you left

Max: Are you okay Lena? (Worried)

Lena: Faking a smile) If I'm fine, why shouldn't I be?

Narrator: Max was going to talk about that but someone came in and spoke to the boys

Mr. Gabriel: Well I see that the company from Paris finally arrived, Max, what are you doing here? today there is no rehearsal

Max: I know Sir but I couldn't help it I like to dance and I want to take advantage of it

Mr. Gabriel: Did you do our special warm-up?

Max: Yes Sir I started to warm up with Hip hop and dance with ballet

Mr. Gabriel: Very good because you are the new members of the Paris company

Lena: Yes sir (bows)

Mr. Gabriel: Don't curtsy I'm not royalty Lena

Lena: How do you know my name?

Mr. Gabriel: Max told me about you when he arrived

Narrator: Everyone turns to see Max and Max is fine the other way

Isaac: Nice to meet you

Mr. Gabriel: The pleasure is mine, you must be Inés (Points to Inés)

Ines: If a pleasure to meet you

Thea: Jeff don't do that (Tries to take his fist off)

Mr. Gabriel: Easy my dear. What's up Jeff (bumps his fist with Jeff) I'm Gabriel Mendes director of the New York Opera and the New York school, Max can you help me guide them to their rooms

Max: Yes Mr. Gabriel

Mr. Gabriel: What did I say about calling myself Lord?

Max: Sorry Gab

Mr. Gabriel: Make it better, come guys

Jeff: Dude, he doesn't look like Miss Carré at all

Max: I know

Isaac: And how does he know about us?

Max: When I auditioned for the company, he took me to his office, apparently he knows that I am Armando Castillo's son, so he asked me what I was doing here in New York and I told him I was wondering about each one of you.
