Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for March 10, 2016
Transcript:
Phoebe: The morning grass was still wet beneath my shoes as I made my way across the meadow. There, before me, stood that rarest of all creatures! "Don't look at me like that", I said to her. "I just like movies with voiceover narration". Marigold: You should show, rather than just tell.

“And so I began thinking of how to prove to the hypothetical audience that this creature was indeed the rarest of all.”

Sorry, Phoebe, but you can’t grow up to be Morgan Freeman.

Millie once did a narrative while she was on the beach and ended up breaking the fourth wall.http://ozyandmillie.org/2003/07/15/ozy-and-millie-1221/

“Then have you lost a sight, which was to be seen, cannot be spoken of. There might you have beheld one joy crown another, so and in such manner that it seemed sorrow wept to take leave of them, for their joy waded in tears. There was casting up of eyes, holding up of hands, with countenances of such distraction that they were to be known by garment, not by favour. Our king, being ready to leap out of himself for joy of his found daughter, as if that joy were now become a loss, cries ‘O, thy mother, thy mother!’ then asks Bohemia forgiveness; then embraces his son-in-law; then again worries he his daughter with clipping her; now he thanks the old shepherd, which stands by like a weather-bitten conduit of many kings’ reigns. I never heard of such another encounter, which lames report to follow it and undoes description to do it.”—Shakespeare, “The Winter’s Tale”
