CLASSIFICATION. A single scene sketch; it is like a charcoal drawing.
PLOT. The plot, concealed beneath the picture, lies in the objectifying
of the eternal struggle for bread and meat.
SETTING. The place is the street near the theatre door: like a magnet
it draws the individual human beings, who cohere in the mass until the
attracting power is removed.
CHARACTERS. This mass, or aggregate, emphasizes the individual
struggle, at the same time it engulfs individual personality. What does
the name “Supers” indicate, literally? Figuratively? What part does Red
Beard play? How does he, too, contribute to the larger unity at the
same time he offers a note of contrast?
ATMOSPHERE. Sordid, drab realism, uncompromising in its ugliness.
