English term or phrase: It’s an evil demon
Testo teatrale americano (per la messa in scena e non per la pubblicazione). Dialogo tra due ospiti di una casa di riposo a proposito di uno spettacolo canoro interno alla struttura.

A: I’m afraid of performing. You know that.
B: You performed with a choir for years.
A: With a choir! I could hide behind the fat sopranos! Nobody saw me or heard me. Performing on my own is a different story. It terrifies me.
B: Then this is a good chance to conquer that demon.
A: I don’t want to conquer that demon. It’s an evil demon, as the name would imply.

La mia proposta:

[...]
A: Io non voglio sconfiggere il demone. È un demone maligno, come dice il nome stesso.

Cerco soluzioni migliori. Grazie.
