Read the I Wish I Was a Mountain Book On the day of the famous annual fair, the town of Faldum receives an unexpected visit. A wanderer offers to grant a wish to anyone who wants one. Before long, the city is transformed. Mansions stand where mud huts once squatted, and beggars ride around in horse drawn carriages. And one man wishes to be turned into a mountain. Written by former Glastonbury Poetry Slam Champion Toby Thompson, I Wish I Was A Mountain uses rhyme, rhythm, and just a smattering of metaphysical philosophy to boldly reimagine Hermann Hesse’s classic fairytale. Do we really need the things that we long for? What do mountains feel? How did time begin? Ideal for reading aloud and sharing with children and family, this soul-enhancing book is the perfect read, whose words will stay with you for a lifetime. Experience a little bit of magic on every page, straight from the stage at the egg Theatre. This is a fairytale that doesn’t so much end happily ever after as ask us how the “ever after” affects our daily lives…a short but profound show… which reveals Thompson as a star in the making. ★ ★ ★ ★ Chris Wiegland, The Guardian I Wish I Was A Mountain is a show that combines simplicity and profundity in so appealing a manner that it simply should not be missed. Christopher Hoile, Stage Door He shares this world so generously that it will be yours as soon as you hear it. Gill Kirk, B 24/7 Text © Toby Thompson 2018 Cover Art and Design by B.

As with all the things I’ve ever done that appear in retrospect to have been well worth doing, I didn’t have the faintest, foggiest, flimsiest notion of where to begin. For want of being struck down by a timely lightning-bolt of inspiration (I live forever in want of that), I busied myself with scattered perusals of the various usual suspects: Hans Christian Anderson and Brothers Grimm compendiums were duly skimmed. Oscar Wilde, Angela Carter and a number of other geniuses took their rightful place on my bookshelf. I read little to turn one’s nose up at, and lots that could only be revelled in as pitch perfect storytelling, but where was that feeling of deep affinity for which I pined? Time was passing, as time does, and I had the uncomfortable sensation that if a love at first sight type miracle didn’t prove expeditiously forthcoming, then I’d fast be entering pick-a-story-any-story-any-one-will-do territory. 5 Toby Thompson Scene change. It’s 2017. Winter has long been dispensed with by Spring. Nonetheless does my optimism remain a dwindled, leafless thing. Goldilocks seems as good a choice as any. But what’s this? Not a lightning bolt per se, little more than a twinkling star - a single shaft of sunlight on a grey day. As glimmers of hope go, it’s speculative to say the least. But a glimmer is a glimmer. Did Hermann Hesse ever take it into his head to write a fairy tale? That is the question. If he did then I feel quite certain, for no apparent reason, that I am saved. Seeing as you have in your hands a copy of this script, I probably don’t need to clear up the question of Hesse’s fairy tale writing propensities. But I will tell you exactly why I fell in love with the story Faldum, later renamed I Wish I Was A Mountain, partly for marketing purposes, partly for the fun of everyone involved in the show choosing their own unique way of pronouncing the abbreviated title: IWIWAM. Mine is the sort of nature that yearns for certainty’s company but somehow never quite manages to cross its path. Answers are to me as gods, far off and insubstantial. I’ve heard of them, yes, but their existence in my life is purely theoretical. The world I can see and touch, the world I live in, is peopled exclusively with questions. It is perhaps for this reason that Faldum made such an immediately favourable impression on me. I found it beautiful and moving, but I couldn’t for the life of me work out what it meant. Even now, countless scrunched-up-face-inducing metaphysical discussions with the director, Lee Lyford, down the line, 50 performances in, I couldn’t really tell you what it’s about. Music? Impermanence? Transcendence? Desire? OK, maybe I can tell you what it’s about but I can’t tell you what its angle is. There’s no prescribed takeaway, no axe being ground. Its meaning lives in the threads that join each individual listener to the story’s unfolding and is thusly an entirely unpindownable thing. Which I might add, 6 7 I Wish I Was A Mountain by way of wrapping this up, is precisely what life is. An entirely, ineffably, ex- quisitely, deceptively, delightfully, distressingly, empirically, perplexingly unpin- downable thing. And would that it wasn’t, I’d wish that it were. May 2019 6 7 Toby Thompson I Wish I Was A Mountain was conceived and created by the egg Theatre’s Incubator - Idea Development Programme Originally co-produced by the egg Theatre with Travelling Light Theatre Company Co-commissioned by Brighton Dome and Imaginate Written and Performed by Toby Thompson Direction and Dramaturgy by Lee Lyford Designed by Anisha Fields Writing was supported by The Leverhulme Trust and The Peggy Ramsay Foundation. The production was supported using public funding from Arts Council England and crowd funded by the many friends, family and admirers of Toby Thompson. I Wish I Was A Mountain is a product of the egg Theatre’s Incubator - Idea Development Programme. The aim of the Incubator is to deepen the quality of art that is available for young audiences, and to inspire theatre makers to think about children and their place in our society differently by giving artists space, time and support to think and conceive. Travelling Light create outstanding theatrical experiences which move, inspire and fire young people’s imaginations. The company have produced many award-winning, well-loved shows for young audiences including Boing!, Cinderella: A Fairytale and Into The West. 8 9 I Wish I Was A Mountain PROLOGUE - I Found This Story In A Book Hey, how is everyone? My name’s Toby, I’m a poet And there’s a story I wanna share with you I found this story in a book, on a bench, by a pond In a park in Bath where I’m from Alice Park, it’s my favourite park I got to the bench about three o’clock in the afternoon Saw the book, was kind of intrigued, but also really hungry So I had my sandwich Avocado, cucumber and humous, in a pita pocket It was a poet’s sandwich And then I was gonna go into town to see some friends But I wasn’t in a rush so I thought, why not… Why not have a quick flick through the pages of the book Just in case it’s any good It’s probably not, it’s probably rubbish But hey, you never know, I’ll just take a little look Fairy tales! It’s a book of fairy tales I love fairy tales. 8 9 Toby Thompson Most of these ones were pretty standard There was one about a load of goblins who kidnapped a princess One about some villagers who killed a dragon Because he kept eating their horses for breakfast It was all the usual stuff Damsels in distress, jealous stepmothers All of them ended happily ever after But then there was this one story, this one story I was literally just about to go home when I found it The sky was getting dark, I could hardly see the words on the page I had to use the torch on my phone I was cold. I was late for dinner. My legs were aching. I’d spent the whole day sat on this bench. But this story, I wouldn’t have stopped reading it if you’d payed me a hundred pounds And I couldn’t believe someone had just left it on the bench Who left it there? And why was I the one who found it? Anyway, the thing is… There were lots of lovely stories in this book that I found But none of the others were even slightly so profound So intriguing, so perplexing, so deliciously astounding As the one about the gentleman, who wished he was… A mountain So that’s the story I’m gonna tell you It’s called: I Wish I Was A Mountain 10 11 I Wish I Was A Mountain EVER SEEN A RECORD? Ever seen one of these before? It’s amazing. It’s got music inside This is what people had before iPods They’re beautiful things But they don’t make any sense Where does the music come from? Look, you put it on here And then it spins round and round And then this tiny little needle touches the surface of the record And then the music, which is just…vibrations Gets sent through the needle And then it goes through all these wires, and into the speakers And then it travels out, through the air And all the way into everyone’s different ears And everyone’s different brains And that all happens…instantly It’s magic! Okay, we’re actually gonna start now.

Smith Foreign Rights Gyldendal Agency P.O. Box 6860 St. Olavs plass NO-0130 Oslo Tel: +47 957 81 640 [email protected] http://eng.gyldendal.no Pages 9-23: We get to know Ingrid and her job When the social educator caught fire, I was at home brushing my teeth. I mashed the brush hard against the gums so as to get rid of the rib residue and regretted having accepted the invite. I’d taken off the white blouse and kicked off the black trainers. I was about to leave the blouse on the floor, but since that simply isn’t done, I picked it up and put it in the dirty clothes bin. I kept on regretting, the edges of my mouth specked with white foam. I pressed my nails into my left palm. No matter how hard I brushed, the smell wouldn’t go away, lingering between me and the mirror like the smoke from a grill, a cloud of pork rinds and gløgg and fire as the scorching hot water cascaded down the drain. As usual, the health and welfare office had pulled out all the stops. Every Christmas, they book the local pub by the roundabout, set out torches in the car park, and give each of us rib, lukewarm pork patties, pickles, two glasses of red wine and a thimbleful of aquavit. If we want 2 more drinks, we have to buy them ourselves, even though I’ve often observed the admin team surreptitiously using vouchers.

  • From the Outside in the Secret to Automatic Language Growth
    From the Outside In The Secret to Automatic Language Growth J. Marvin Brown Copyright 2003, ALG World Co., Ltd. 4 Preface I’ve been trying to learn languages and teach them all my life. I spent the war trying to learn Chinese, and I spent the next 50 years trying to learn 20 more languages and trying to teach two. All this time I was aware, of course, that the only language I really learned was the one I didn’t try to learn. In an educational system where trying is king, how could we ever hope to find out that trying was the villain? It took me a lifetime to see this, and the purpose of this book is to tell you about that lifetime. There are three great scholars, especially, who contributed to my ideas. Their books will help to show where I’m coming from, and their bibliographies will serve to connect my thinking to the relevant literature. William T. Powers.

I feel fortunate to have spent so many Fridays singing, playing bingo, sharing memories, laughing, and working together. I would also like to thank my advisor, Frank Gunderson, who has supported my inclination to think differently by preferring not to counter my intuition and curiosity as a scholar. By mentoring me via a “politics of subtraction” in this way, he effectively opened up a space in which I could imagine and construct this project. I am also grateful to the members of my committee, Michael Bakan, Charles Brewer, and Alice-Ann Darrow, for their input and support in this project.

  • Shared Stories
    Shared Stories Shared by Morgan, 19 I was bullied in elementary school because I was short and different. Kids would spread rumors about me, tease me, and call me names. I told the teachers what was going on but nothing was being done and the bullying got worse. I started to come home from school crying and sometimes I would even be crying when my parents dropped me off at school. So I told my parents what was going on and they did something about it and things got better. No one deserves to be bullied. After experiencing being bullied I am taking a stand against bullying. I am on a mission to stop bullying. Shared by Tan, 20 When I was in high school, I was a very quiet and shy girl. I was afraid of people getting too close to me, as a consequence I did not have any friends I thought I was mysterious in that way. It started with a boy who seated beside me. One day, when I was paying close attention to the teacher I realised that he could not keep his eyes off me. I admit I was delighted because I never had a guy mesmerised by my beauty before and I took it as a big compliment. Besides, I thought he was quite cute! As usual, the classroom teases typical of high school started. Everyone said that this guy had a big crush on a girl in our class, my heart stopped in my chest: I was waiting for him to say my name and admit.

  • 1 Amazing Grace
    1Amazing Grace BY JOHN NEWTON 1. Amazing grace, how sweet the sound That saves a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now I'm found; Was bound, but now I’m free. 2. 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear And grace my fear relieved; How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed. 3. Through many dangers, toils and snares We have already come; 'Twas grace that brought us safe thus far, And grace will lead us on. 4. When we've been there ten thousand years, Bright shining as the sun, We've no less days to sing God's praise Than when we’d first begun. 5. Amazing grace, how sweet the sound That saves a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now I'm found; Was bound, but now I'm free. 2Just aCloser Walk With Thee TRADITIONAL 1. Just a closer walk with Thee, Grant it, Jesus, is my plea; Daily walking close with Thee, Let it be, dear Lord, let it be. 2. Through the days of toil and snares, If I falter, Lord, who cares? Who with me my burden shares? None but Thee, dear Lord, none but Thee. 3. When my feeble life is o'er Time for me will be no more; Guide me gently, safely on To thy shore, dear Lord, to thy shore. 4. I am weak, but Thou art strong. Jesus, keep me from all wrong. I'll be satisfied as long As I walk, let me walk close to Thee.

  • The Roadkill Club a Full-Length Play
    DUKE UNIVERSITY Durham, North Carolina The Roadkill Club A Full-length Play Valerie Muensterman June 10, 2020 Undergraduate Creative Writing Honors Thesis Trinity College of Arts and Sciences English Department Characters Nan A determined young woman who seems older than she is. A busybody by nature with obsessive tendencies. She is 28. Roy A spirited teenage girl. A seer and believer. She is turning 18. Dusty A simple man with a philosophical mind. He is disheveled, sloppy, and gentle. He is early 30s. Mack Grimm A fourteen-year-old boy with a steely-eyed glare. He appears ragged, dirty, dangerous. The Man A man in his fifties. He wears a rumpled, old-fashioned suit that is slightly too large for him and looks like it has been buried in the ground. Setting The present. A kitchen, connected to a porch, connected to an expanse of yard. In the kitchen, a table and four chairs. On the porch, a six-foot-long hope chest. It’s shaped like a coffin. The porch is surrounded by orange ditch lilies: plastic flowers in real dirt. The inside and outside blend together. Author’s Note There is little sarcasm in this play. The play works best when the characters are played with sincerity, and likewise, when irony is underplayed rather than overplayed. Scene One. Morning. Nan waters the ditch lilies with a pitcher of water. On the porch, the radio mumbles Willie Nelson’s “Sad Songs and Waltzes.” Roy, her younger sister, sits on the stoop, watching. ROY I feel so kin to ditch lilies.
