Summary:
Ever since Jason was young, the theatre and literature were his escape from the pain of his life. His ma would take him to a local theatre all the time, before the drugs really found her. On her worse days, he would sing to her from her favorite musicals like she did for him when he was younger. Alfred encouraged his love for the performing arts by teaching him to sing and act. He dreamt that maybe he could find himself in theatre when he grew up. But if his death, crappy first 23 years of life and a family who didn’t care for him at all, told him anything, was that he couldn’t escape his pain. Until Tim decided to give Jason a chance and now he has the opportunity to start a new life, to move on from his past. Maybe he could finally join the world of theatre like his ma and Alfred would want him to.
But can Jason actually do that, live a real, happy life? Would he even know how?
