Quick drabble for [livejournal.com profile] open_on_sunday's challenge "The show must go on."

Like, No Business I Know

"I suppose you think this is funny?" Snyder slammed the door of his office and circled the three students in a supposedly shark-like fashion.

Buffy, Xander and Willow didn't look very amused.

"Right. I'd prefer to have you expelled just to be on the safe side, but apparently someone on the school board understands avant-garde theater better than me." He sat down and held up a letter. "So you've been hired to perform your... 'savagely post-modern deconstruction' of Oedipus Rex at high schools all over California. To start with. Happy now?"

Thud. "Willow...?"

"And there's no fainting in my office!"

Snyder has hit upon the perfect punishment, and he's missing it! Poor Snyder...

Fantastic job, as always!

They were actually rehearsing Springtime For Hitler, but when Sheila and Ira showed up they had to quickly switch to Fiddler on the Roof.

You really think Willow's parents would take time out of their busy schedules to show up for something like this? ;)

The memory of poor Willows' stage fright made me giggle and, Syder was such a pud! Thanks for the memories, mysix6

Love this! That little coda in the episode was so much fun, as was the way it ended. Great idea!
