Everyone Sees it Diffrently
(#) studentnumber24601 2005-06-20
I know this story's been around forever but I never got around to reading it, but figured, hey, shiny new archive! I like the POV, there's a clear contrast between the intro and this chapter.
However, it also gets a little confusing. Half the time, I can't tell what Dutchy is talking about--there's no real description, just Dutchy's POV. And while that's cool, I had to go back and reread to figure out where and how he got his head stuck, since there wasn't much of an explanation. It also feels like a lot of it is taken from experience--such as actors being dumb. :) (Anyone who's worked on a production staff knows that... you're a stage manager, right?) However, when things are taken so much from experience it's really easy to take for granted that everyone knows what's going on, and that's not always true; there were a few things in the theater (pickle tub? Moses?) that had me really, really confused. So if you ever go back and edit this, you might want to keep that in mind.
I am really enjoying it, though. If it wasn't 4 AM I'd keep reading, but I should probably go to bed...
