Thespians
Curtain Up! The play begins
The stage composed of thespians
Who help us laugh and have us grieve
In their play-filled world of make believe
These actors voice the playwrights' lines
As they draw us through the plays design
The characters, when adeptly staged
Can make us cringe at a villains rage
The show can leave us so well smitten
Provided that the play's well written
We escape reality this moment of time
Through the thespians wondrous pantomime
Famed Thespians, large audiences draw
Olivier, Barrymore, held in awe
History immortalizes down through the ages
Those eminent actors who acted on stages
