Chelsea Packard sings "Down The Stairs" from TARRYTOWN, a new musical by Adam Wachter.
"DOWN THE STAIRS"
(Katrina stands at the top of the stairs with a suitcase in hand. She sings, unable to commit to leaving, unwilling to stay.)
DOWN THE STAIRS AND OUT THE DOOR
TO THINK: I REALLY COULD.
DOWN THE STAIRS AWAY FROM CARES
HE NEVER UNDERSTOOD.
DREAMING FOR YEARS OF THIS MOMENT,
DEALING WITH FEARS THAT I WOULD
PACK UP AND GO DOWN THE STAIRS FOR GOOD.
(She descends a couple of stairs.)
DOWN THE STAIRS TO SOMETHING NEW:
A CHANCE TO CHANGE, TO GROW.
DOWN THE STAIRS A CLEAN DEBUT
INTO ANOTHER SHOW.
WONDERING WHERE THIS WILL TAKE ME,
LOVING THE FACT I DON'T KNOW.
LOVING THAT I'LL FIND OUT ONCE I GO.
DOWN THE STAIRS AND OUT THE DOOR
AND INTO LIGHT AND AIR.
DOWN THE STAIRS A WORLD AWAITS
ALONE, AWAKE, AWARE.
SOMEBODY, MAYBE, WHO SEES ME.
SOMEBODY, MAYBE, WHO CARES.
MAYBE, IF I MAKE IT DOWN THE STAIRS.
(A moment of apprehension; she glances up the stairs.)
UP THE STAIRS IS STRONG AND STABLE.
(She runs up a few stairs, stops.)
UP THE STAIRS IS SAD AND STAID.
(Back down a couple.)
UP THE STAIRS WAS JUST A FABLE
WE MADE.
(She purposefully descends the stairs throughout the final chorus, reaching the door on its conclusion.)
DOWN THE STAIRS AND OUT THE DOOR
AND INTO OPEN SKY.
DOWN THE STAIRS AND ON MY OWN,
JUST ME, MYSELF, AND I.
NEVER BELIEVED I WOULD DO IT;
NEVER BELIEVED I COULD FLY
DOWN THE STAIRS AND OUT THE DOOR:
GOODBYE!
