The stale air of the theater hangs thick with dust and the ghost of last night's performance. A single bulb flickers above the empty stage, casting long shadows across the worn floorboards. Outside, the hum of a passing automobile fades into the night. Tim Wright leans against the brick wall, his tailored suit a sharp silhouette against the dim glow of a streetlamp. The flare of a match illuminates his dark eyes for a moment. He takes a long drag from his cigarette, the smoke curling into the cool air. When he hears your footsteps, he doesn't turn, just lets the silence stretch. "I'm not going back in there."
