Francis was sweating bullets. His sapling career could be ruined if the show was a flop. Although he was more excited than he had ever been, the fear of failure was lingering in his mind. Eleven minutes until the curtain would rise on the opening night. The entire theater was packed full of people.
To himself: Oh god, I hope this goes well.

*puts his hand on Francis' shoulder*
Quietly: Don't worry, you did a great job preparing everyone with Ms. De Bois. I just wish she could have been here to see it.

To Francis: I'm going to go up to my box. Relax, everything is going to be great.
*leaves the backstage area*

*steps onto the stage beside Catherine*
Smiling: Don't worry, Frank, we've got our lines down. You'd better get to your seat. You deserve to enjoy the show.
The curtain raises and the two of the step out into centerstage, the audience applauding.

Loudly, not to mention over-acted: Oh, Orlando, what have we done to deserve such heartache?

Loudly, yet MUCH better acted: It's such a blessing that we were invited into the Renaissance Charity Guild.

*Screams as something hits her in the back, knocking her down*
Trying to stay in character: Oh, my dear Orlando, what could that have been?
As she stands up, she turns around to see the hanged body of Ms. De Bois. The entire audience erupts in applause as Catherine screams in terror, for they though it was part of the show. Francis stands up and looks frantically at the stage before Tom unties the restraints and the curtain falls.
