ACE NITETIME & JACK STATIC
THE CURTAIN COMES BACK

FORMAT
One large portrait-oriented theatrical broadside. It is a single unified
scene rather than a sequence of panels.

VISUAL
Ace and Jack stand full-length on opposite sides of a dark stage curtain,
pulling it open and looking directly at the audience. Ace wears his rust-red
shirt, dark vest, jeans, and headphones. Jack wears glasses, an olive work
jacket, jeans, and his tool belt.

Behind the upper curtain is the painted NITETIME.NET Gopherspace landscape
from the preceding adventure. Beneath a marquee thanking the audience, the
curtain opens farther onto a warm Wisconsin garage filled with radio gear,
tools, beige computers, cables, and a CRT announcing the next destination.

Backstage props include a director's chair, a DJRC—WEBMASTER slate, a carved
gopher on a dolly, a NITETIME.NET field manual, a clapperboard, route notes,
and coiled cables.

DIALOGUE
ACE: We're actors. You got that, right?
JACK: We work for DJRC—the Webmaster at NITETIME.NET.
