EDL World's show was inspired by a famous art piece by Magritte, with a man in a business suite with an apple in front of his face. Since you dont see his face you dont know what kind of person he is or what he's feeling. He is what ever you want him to be and thats why at the begining there are so many characters. The song, Pulling rabbits out of a hat, talks about this man doing great things in life but no one seems to notice, but when he does something simple like pulling a rabbit out of a hat people applaue for him and how people dont appreciate excellence. Those are the basics behind the show.


I'll grab the sun and the moon
I'll hold the world in my hand
These things are easy for me
I can't make you understand

Pulling rabbits out of a hat
All I get is polite applause
Applause, applause, applause, applause

Marvel at heaven and hell
Gasp at the Champs-Elysees
Raise the Titanic and then
I see you turning away

Pulling rabbits out of a hat
All I get is polite applause
Applause, applause, applause, applause

Entertaining, that's the word I get from you
Entertaining, and then you bid a fond adieu
Well, adieu

I'll make a pauper a king
I'll turn your water to wine
These things are easy for me
How come I can't change your mind

Pulling rabbits out of a hat
All I get is polite applause
Applause, applause, applause, applause

Pearl Madison: I'm only human.
Leland: How come people only say that when they've done something wrong?
