Excerpt:
I turned
to glance at the audience, saw that everyone was suddenly and surprisingly
alert and then quickly whipped my head back around to see all the actors in the
play each pointing a gun at someone else in the play. It was an interesting
plot twist given that the first act was more comedy—intentional or not—rather
than murder mystery.
Then, BOOM, a gun went off on stage.
I
jumped. The theater jumped in unison. Several people sucked in their breaths. I
hoped no one was about to choke on a lozenge because mouth-to-mouth on the
elderly is never fun—trust me on that one. The actress ran to one of her
lovers. She knelt down by his side. Her eyes went wide. She screamed. I almost
applauded. It was the best acting she’d done all day. Then she screamed again.
“He’s been shot!”
“Um,
duh,” I whispered to myself.
“Someone
call the police!” she added.
No one
moved, though I heard a few people behind me shift nervously around in their
seats. One old guy coughed. I waited for a choking sound. Thankfully, it was
just a cough and nothing more. Phew.
The
other actors suddenly looked uneasy. I reached for my gun on instinct. Well, I
reached for my can of mace actually, which was all I was allowed to legally
carry, but it was still a weapon—you now, mostly. I mean, a shot of mace to the
eyes can take a man down right quick. I know because I accidentally on purpose
shot myself in the face with it once, just to see if mace had an expiration
date. Turned out, it doesn’t.
“He’s
dead!” shouted the actress hysterically.
The
other actors rushed to their downed brethren. Suddenly, they didn’t all seem
so, you know, acty. I too rushed the
stage, taking the stairs off to the side two at a time. “Nobody move!” I
shouted, can of mace held up high.
They all
stared up at me and grimaced. The cuckolded husband shouted, “Call the police!
He really has been shot!”
