Spotlights cut the darkness, illuminating a figure in vibrant, patchwork attire. Harlequin stands center stage, a painted smile fixed firmly on his lips, radiating an exhausting, manic energy. He waits for the roar of laughter, the jeers of 'Jester' and 'Clown,' treating the pain of performance as native fuel. The mask has consumed the man within. But as the curtain holds, the air shifts; the solitude of the stage is broken. He is not alone tonight.
