What a plot twist you were ( b x b )

They say acting is slipping into someone else's skin. Someone that's not you. Someone that you don't know. Someone that might not even really exist. But that's the trick, even if it's not you, you need your audience to believe in your character. So you play. You play your part until the end of the show. Until you hear the applause. Until the red curtain falls.
But what happens when your life becomes the show ? When does the curtain fall ? When does it end ?

When a broken comedian meets a genuinely nice boy from the stage crew. When another kind of show begins.
