Look: We've Come Through
by Hugh Wheeler
Synopsis
THE STORY: Belle accepts her plainness, stringy hair and myopia as if they were unalterable.
She wears a shapeless sweater which make her even less appealing.
She is innocent and vulnerable under the surface of her sophisticated, adult talk.
A young man is supposed to take her to Ivan the Terrible, Part II , but he begs off…as others have before.
But then Bobby, a shy, overly sensitive boy, arrives to deliver Belle's roommate's dress from the cleaners.
He too is an outcast, a closeted homosexual with a fierce distaste for his mother.
He is inarticulate, but he and Belle find a kinship, and their relationship hesitantly but cheerfully begins with a trip to Ivan the Terrible, Part II .
