Scene 6 The Visitor’s Area (AMOS & ROXIE are S.R in what is the visitor’s area of the Jail. ) ANNOUNCER: Ladies & Gentlemen, a tap dance. ROXIE: (to AMOS, with great feeling) Oh, Amos, I knew you’d come. I’ve been sinful, but I want to make up to you for what I done. And I will, just as soon as I get out of here. And I can, too, Amos. You see, there’s this lawyer, and he costs five thousand dollars. AMOS: Roxie, I’m tired of your fancy footwork. The answer is "no". ROXIE: I know I lied to you. I know I cheated on you. I even stole money from your pants pockets while you were sleepin’. AMOS: You did? ROXIE: But I never stopped loving you, no, not my Amos – so manly, so attractive, so… I’m embarrassed… so sexy. AMOS: But, five thousand bucks… ROXIE: It’s my hour of need for chrissakes! AMOS: Okay. I’ll get it for you, Roxie. I’ll get it. (Three people finish the dance. ROXIE nods a bow to the audience) BLACKOUT |
