A Touching Incident from a Crowded Provincial Theatre
A crowd in a small theatre roars at a lead actor who visibly falters on stage. He explains his pain after his wife died hours before the performance, tears streaming as he apologizes and receives quiet sympathy from women and men. The piece ends with reflections on sorrow behind outward smiles and a plea to treat motherless girls with gentleness.
