Theatre Without an Audience

A woman in a blue dress walks into a city older than memory. She can't remember why she came to the city, the alley, the door. Inside waits a room that shouldn't exist and at its center is a splintered chair and coils of waiting rope. It is a stage set for a performance with no script, no words, and no audience. The Theater Without an Audience is a flash fiction work of surreal, gothic horror about ritual, surrender, and the terrible suspicion that we are all rehearsing a play we've mistaken for a life.
Atmospheric and hypnotic, it circles back on itself like a recurring dream. The kind you're never quite sure you've woken from.
