I’M LATE. I’M LATE FOR A VERY IMPORTANT DATE
He could be running a race, which is doubtful as he is in a suit. He might be dancing. Don’t know where he is running to. Perhaps he is late meeting his lady friend or going to the pub. It looks like he has run a long way. He looks a bit exhausted.
It looks like a padlock or a bunch of keys in his hand.
There is a railing there, indoors, it may be in a theatre. There’s a barrier and so he might be running round something. Maybe he is going backstage? It’s dangerous to run in a theatre.
On the right of the picture there is a drainpipe going down that is not a picturesque part of the picture. Is the pipe inside or outside? It is inside, but meant to look outside. You wouldn’t have a drainpipe like that in your dining room. It could be going into a changing room.
There might be a lift on the right.
In this pose it looks like he could have an audience. He is a performer. Whoever saw a man like that running along a road?
It looks like he may fall.
He has got wriggly pants ... on the leg that’s lifted.
He is definitely singing. It’s an aria from an opera [group sings ‘pom, pom, pa, pom, pom, pom, pa pom pa pom’]. He is singing to his lady love who is on a balcony. He is late for his entrance.
He has a lovely bow tie, white shirt, pale blue waistcoat and black shoes. We like the look of him. He is concentrating very hard. He is performing or going to a performance. He is on stage ....no he is not on stage.
He is a well known tenor singing to a large audience. You can hear it resonating around the room.
The show is an opera called The Last Night at the Opera.
