The Intermission

There's a brief moment right after the first half of a play where one sits in contemplation. The first act is over and the beginning of the end of the play is fast approaching. This solitary moment is often distracted by trips to the bathroom or the concession stands. But the savvy few know that this moment is built into a show to give you time to process what you've just experienced. To allow you a moment to readjust and refocus your perceptions. A moment of false finality. In the hopes that when the real finale comes you revel in it.
