THE SECRET QUESTION
A public address. The backroom of a grocery store, the locker room of a barber. A secret bar.
Another story: hidden, intimate, romantic, alcoholic, illegal, forbidden. There are no rules except one: speakeasy, please!
Small doors that hide big secrets. Glamor, allure and transgression. Tobacco. Smoke. Long beards. Handlebar mustache, braces and jiggers, boas, feathers, lightness.
Red lacquered mouths and nails. Boast. Femininity and Androgyny. Luster, spangles.
Glass that is colored with various mixtures corrected with poor alcohol. Molasses. Candles. Shadows.
Offbeat. Eyes open. Mouths closed.
Only one condition to enter: answer the secret question. Yes but ... softly. Sshhhh!
