I come into the room dressed in tracksuit bottoms and a T-shirt, get changed in front of the audience as if I'm going to a party, change, put on make-up and high heels. Then I take toffees out of my little (golden) handbag, start eating them one by one and throw the golden papers on the floor. It's a fake rain of glitter. I eat one after the other in different positions and places around the room, and finally I get up on the bench and pop as many as I can into my mouth at once. So many until I can't stand it any longer and throw them up.
There are only the leftovers on the bench: the silver heels, the golden bag, the sunglasses. And the golden papers are all over the floor.
The performance is over.
