'Shake the Disease'

I'm workshopping an alternative video scenario, but I'm short on ideas.

Ideas
1. Props: a censer in which the disease to be shaken is placed
2. A martini glass

Help?

(It's the Depeche Mode song. I had an enlightening exchange of thoughts with uzless, which has led to this. It's by way of exorcism probably).

I have no idea what you are talking about but maybe a vibrator going into a prostitute would work?

OK, we can use the vibrator with a leper instead. Wardrobe?

Fantastic. What a talented bunch we've got here.

Anything else for the float? Budget's limited, don't get too fancy.

I suggest you put in an audience that all have confused looks on their faces. Make them all wear RHP T-shirts and hats.

In the background, Aristotle should be doing a book signing for his "Art of Rhetoric" book but none of the people with RHP T-Shirts should be in the line.

Hell, you could even have a couple of anti-Socratic philosophers wearing "Down with Sophists!" wife beater shirts...but again, none of the rhp wearing tshirt people would understand.

They can be dancing blankly in RHP leather pants and caps.

Aristotle can go on the float, which is now a raised dais where the band should go.

Wife-beater shirts?

Socrates is said to have been harrassed very much by his wife Xanthippe...

Nozt that I as RHP member would know anything about that.

That wouldn't necessarily make Socrates a wife-beater. More likely it was her socking him.

How about a dream sequence with an assembly of Xanthippes slapping Socrates upside the head?
And to make it even more poignant, have Socrates wear a clown suit and a George Bush mask.
