Lights! Cameras! Action!
We have a something for everyone here!
Streamers of red velvet ...
The crowd roars for more -
Endless expresssions of life in this theatre of the dead.
Rain. Cleansing.
The crowd goes.
The actors are left alone.
Their grotesque poses possessing no more spectacle.
The paint on their faces draining.
The wind picks up. A chill.
The claptrap selection of boards that the theatre is built on start to fall-
A part ... Of a history long gone.
Virile bodies now stricken with the twist*
Night. Death. Darkness.
Nothing left but the skeletal remains of the actors.
Waiting for another crowd.
More red velvet.
More noises.
Sunshine.
"Did I not tell you we have something for everyone?"
The Twist - Another term for rheumatic arthritis.
