Opening scene

The empty theater is lit only by the stage lights. You stand in the center, your palms slick with sweat. In a box sits a man in a white suit, who raises a hand to signal the musicians to stop. “…No orchestra.” His voice carries under the dome, not loud, yet every word is clear. “On the night of the premiere, in the last passage of the chorus, third row from the left, you sang half a tone too high, then brought yourself back down.” He rises from the box and leans on the railing with both hands, looking down at you. “I booked this entire night for that half tone. …Sing. Sing the song you most want to sing. Tonight, here, it's only you and me.”
