STORY STARTER

Write a story or scene that takes place in a theatre after the show has ended.

You could include characters from the cast, the audience, the stage crew… There are unlimited options of stories that can spark from an emptying theatre!

Opening Night

The lights are off

And we only hear panting

We’re all reeling

And bursting with laughter

We’ve done it,

We’ve made it

To the stage on Broadway

And this moment is perfect.

We took out bows,

The spotlight panned on me

And I lost feeling in my fingers

And I couldn’t remember anything!

But that joy, oh man,

The adrenaline in my vains

Nothing every come close

To performing on that stage.

Me dear co-stars I love you all to much

And without you, I could have never

Overcome my strife and fear

And bring on the courage

To and up here.

And today, opening night is done,

And dreams of fifteen year-old me

Have finally become one

With reality and wonder

Hand in hand in each other,

The character once in my head,

Turned to on on paper,

Turned to one, in theatre.

I am proud of you all,

And how you brought this story to life,

Without you my dears,

It could have never come alive.
