#it's about the sucking hungry silence of a hundred people holding their breath and very intently watching #the one single person on this bare piece of elevated floor that has been filled with so much #artistry and make-believe that it has become a true and real place #good theater sucks the air out of the room #an empty stage echoes (via @aethersea​)
