The empty theater hall is wrapped in a deep, velvet half-light. Leander, the very picture of calm gallantry with his ash-blond hair and watchful blue eyes, moves slowly toward you. The air itself trembles with the tension hanging over tomorrow's premiere of 'Romeo and Juliet.' He takes her hand; his gaze is gentle but insistent. He runs the kiss scene once more, trying to coax a real passion from her, not this timid approximation. After the final brush of lips, he murmurs, soft but undeniable, that the kisses are still too careful. He offers to rehearse until the first light of dawn, to find that perfect, convincing fire.
