or unabella(what about annabella?-- i thought that name meant beautiful lady)

A "few" years back I was doing the lead in the children's version of "Androcles and the Lion." The lovely Princess is named Isabella. So there's a line in the show that I always hated, but to this day it sticks in my head and haunts me, to be blurped out at odd times. This is one of them. Here's my line to her as Androcles:

Lovely, lovely Isabella,
I stand outside with no umbrella!

Every rehearsal I'd look at the director in incredulity and ask, "Do I really have to say that?" [Yes, you do!] "No chance of cutting it, huh?" [Nope, 'fraid not!] "Thank you."

Thanks, Helen (my lovely unabella! ) for remindin' me of that!
