The Wall

by Sullyhogs1

A script for a stage adaptation of Pink Floyd's album/rock opera I'm writing. The story is about a burnt-out rock star who builds an emotional and psychological wall between himself and society based off of the traumatic experiences in his past. I own some character names, some new dialogue, and the staging. The rest goes to Pink Floyd front man Roger Waters. Read & review, please!

12. Young Lust

Act I – Scene 10

Young Lust

(PINK is still standing up, when prostitutes and groupies enter the stage, dancing near and around PINK, who is enthralled by them. He begins to dance with them.)

PINK:

I am just a little boy,

Stranger in this town,

Where are all the good times?

Who's gonna show this stranger around?

(One of the prostitutes dances around the pole, strip club style.)

PINK with GROUPIES and PROSTITUTES:

Oooo...I/you need a dirty woman,

Oooo…I/you need a dirty girl.

(The girls make a half-circle behind PINK, while they all are still dancing.)

PINK:

Will some woman in the desert land,

Make me feel like a real man?

Take this rock n' roll refugee,

Ooooh baby set me free.

(A GROUPIE comes up to PINK.)

With GROUPIE:

Oooo…I/you need a dirty woman,

Oooo…I/you need a dirty girl.

(PINK and the GROUPIE dance passionately as the other groupies and prostitutes leave.)

Oooo…I/you need a dirty woman,

Oooo...I/you need a dirty girl.

(Black out. PINK and the GROUPIE exit, while the pole is taken off. Phone sounds are heard.)
