Once the community caught wind That you were performing here,

We sold out in a day.

And it's a three-hour play. Come on, let's go.

Come on. - evan, I-I'm sorry,

I just, look,

I've been painting sets here Every summer for years.

But this time it's different.

She's a parsons alum.

A letter of rec From her

Would really help My application.

- I get it. I get it.

Good luck.

- evan, you can't say that In the theater!

"Good luck" is bad luck.

You have to say "Break a leg." - okay!

I'm sorry, It was a slip.

- you can't say macbeth either. That's even worse luck!

- you just said macbeth.

- okay, stop. Stop!

We have to go outside,

Turn around three times, And spit.

- paige, we are outside.

I get dizzy easily. And technically,

I think we have To turn around nine times.

It's just a superstition. Come on.

It's, uh--it's-- Oh, I said macbeth!

Macbeth, macbe-- It's--I cursed the show!

I said macbeth!" It's ridiculous.

- help! We have an emergency. Call a doctor!

[the blue van's independence]

- I said macbeth. Oh, my g--

Why do I keep saying that?

- maybe your corset's too tight.

- why can't you say macbeth? - no, no!

Shh! Just-- - what?

- it is considered taboo To say in a theater.

It can curse a production.

You have to call it "The scottish play."

- I know. Divya, you may find it

Hard to believe, I-I actually was once

Kind of a serious thespian.

- yeah, he begged me To leave gross anatomy early

So I could see him In the title role

Of pirates of penzance. He played a pirate.

- that was freshman year.

I was just in it For the girls then.

But I-I played Much bigger roles after that.

I-I was banquo in macbeth. Oh, my god!

Someone tape my mouth shut. - I will.

They need to see you on stage. Lysander can't see.

A little "Love-in-idleness" On my eyes,

And some got in my eye.

- "Love-in-idleness."

It's an enchanted juice That makes people fall in love.

It's my favorite play.

- mmm. - except we don't use juice.

We use fairy dust.

- or, in your case, Glitter.

It looks like you have A corneal foreign body

That didn't wash out.

It's a delicate procedure And needs to be removed

In a more sterile environment.
