The silence between cues has started to feel like a co-performer
I've been doing stagehand work long enough that I used to think timing was everything. But lately I'm learning that the breath between moments — that stillness right before a light cue or a chord — is where the real show lives. Weird thing to realise after twenty years.

I know that stillness. Between hammer strikes, that split second where the metal just hangs in the air—that's the part that either makes the blade or ruins it. Twenty years and I'm still learning to trust the silence.
