Were The World Mine Page #3

Synopsis: If you had a love-potion, who would you make fall madly in love with you? Timothy, prone to escaping his dismal high school reality through dazzling musical daydreams, gets to answer that question in a very real way. After his eccentric teacher casts him as Puck in A Midsummer Night's Dream, he stumbles upon a recipe hidden within the script to create the play's magical, purple love-pansy. Armed with the pansy, Timothy's fading spirit soars as he puckishly imposes a new reality by turning much of his narrow-minded town gay, beginning with the rugby-jock of his dreams. Ensnaring family, friends and enemies in this chaos, Timothy forces them to walk a mile in his musical shoes. The course of true love never did run smooth; it's a bumpy ride.

Go ahead!

She doesn't get it.

This year's varsity rugby team

is one of the best

in the history

of our institution.

So, this has nothing to

do with time requirements?

We are concerned

about the tradition -

members of the rugby team

portraying females?

Truth be told!

It's bad for morale.

You're embarrassing them!

Only because you've

trained them

to cast judgement

upon each other.

The Academy is concerned that we

are sending the wrong message.

The Academy has been

staging Shakespeare

in this fashion

for 56 years.

We live in a different time.

Your ignorance of the history

of this Academy

and the history of the

theater is offensive.

Women were prohibited by law

to act on the Elizabethan stage!

Men filled the void.

If this confabulation is about

your insecurities with sexuality

or the sexuality of

your warriors...

I don't have issues

with my sexuality!

A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM

is the senior play.

The cast is chosen.

Thank you, gentlemen.

- Jock boy?

- I think he wants you.

I think he wants

to kick my ass.

I think my star quality

is rubbing off.

Why don't you rub up

on Max a little bit?

Maxie...

It's never gonna happen.

Well, stop waiting for him.

# MAYBE THAT'S WHY

MAX DON'T EVEN TRY #

# TO RUB AND KISS

AND SUCK MY THIGH #

# OR GIVE ME

THE TIME OF DAY #

# 'CAUSE HE'S GAY,

HE'S GAY, HE'S GAY! #

He's not gay!

Mom!

Mom?!

Hey, Ms. Tebbit needs

a band for the play.

Really?

Hey!

Where we going?

It's wet out here.

You'll catch cold.

You look beautiful.

Right.

Training was good?

Apparently, I've got a lot

of learning to do.

She said that?

I know I could sell the sh*t

if she'd just let me

out the door with it.

I miss your daddy.

- Dad's an a**hole.

- We were better off.

What?

- You didn't even try.

- He kicked me out.

You left!

You can have him.

I'm fine.

So, you'd rather live

with Frankie again?

She a better mother?

You're my mother!

Like it or not.

Why are you gay?

What did I do?

You didn't make me queer.

Don't use that word, Timothy!

Nobody did.

I'm just queer.

- So deal with it.

- Go to hell!

I do deal with it, Timothy.

Every day I deal with it.

You're not the only one

who has it rough around here.

Every single day I come out

of the closet just like you.

This is not just your problem.

It's both of ours

and I'm trying!

I'm open.

Over here!

Good form.

"What angel wakes me

from my flow'ry bed."

Good form?

He said that?

Isn't he like super jock?

Come on, keep going.

Demetrius says,

"Yea, art thou there?"

"Follow my voice:

Will try no manhood here."

You'll need that manhood

for your jock boy!

That's not what it means.

Manhood!
