:14:02
Tell us about it, Eve.
:14:05
- If I only knew how.
- Try.

:14:09
Well...
:14:29
Well, it started with the play before this one.
:14:32
- Remembrance.
- Remembrance.

:14:35
- Did you see it here in New York?
- San Francisco.

:14:38
It was the last week. I went one night.
:14:41
The most important night
of my life... until now.

:14:44
I found myself going the next night
and the next and the next.

:14:48
Every performance.
:14:50
Then, when the show went East, I went East.
:14:54
- Eve, why don'tyou start at the beginning?
- It couldn't possibly interestyou.

:14:59
Please.
:15:02
I guess it started back home.
Wisconsin, that is.

:15:06
It was just Mom and Dad and me.
:15:08
I was an only child.
I used to make believe a lot when I was a kid.

:15:13
Acted out all sorts of things.
What they were isn't important.

:15:16
But, somehow, acting and make-believe
began to fill up my life more and more.

:15:22
It got so I couldn't tell
the real from the unreal.

:15:25
Except that the unreal
seemed more real to me...

:15:30
- I'm talking a lot of gibberish, aren't I?
- Not at all.

:15:34
Farmers were poor in those days.
That's what Dad was, a farmer.

:15:39
I had to help out.
:15:41
So I quit school, went to Milwaukee,
became a secretary... in a brewery.

:15:48
When you're a secretary in a brewery, it's
hard to make believe you're anything else.

:15:53
Everything is beer.
:15:57
It wasn't much fun, but it helped at home.
