Allegory - Escape from Reality: Page 15



	Here we see the beginning of a Portrayal, which is the enactment of a fable or apologue. Geoff and Thaddeus are the actors for this little gig - doing the acting is sort of like jury duty, except that it's nearly impossible to get out of Portrayal Duty (aka "PD"). By the way, the Hare in the pink sweater is anonymous. I have no idea who she is, but she does live in Otterstow. I did 'copy and paste' the stage and a few other accoutrements such as the chair from frame to frame. But, if you'll notice, I did not c & p the audience. They're different in every frame. I had a heck of a time with the fonts for the portrayal. I just hope it's understandable.
