It’s curtain call. The lights dim as the last stragglers rush to their seats. The seated audience brims with excitement, quietly murmuring in anticipation. The adults look on with interest, but the children in the audience are enraptured. A girl and her dog, dressed in white and blue, appear in the aisle.
