ABSTRACT
The interior of a very old theatre that very few people have entered for a long time. A good amount of dust has accumulated. Everything has been cleaned except the stage, where a layer of dust remains. A microphone. THEY enter and begin to move the dust around. A SPECTATOR from the audience approaches the microphone. No one is white. THEY hand over their phone. The SPECTATOR reads a conversation from a hookup app (Grindr, Scruff, etc.) into the microphone. The conversation begins with a salutation, a breach, the beginning of an exchange. The conversation is happening between THEM and the person on the other end of the app in real time. The SPECTATOR recites the exchange as a single, concrete statement.
