The Understudy
A famous singer loses her voice an hour before the show. The understudy sings the whole set from behind a screen, sounding near enough identical. The crowd roars, goes home happy, and posts about the best night of the tour. Nobody tells them.
Were they cheated?
Then ask
- What if the understudy was the better singer?
- Do they deserve their money back for something they never noticed?
- Would you want the venue to tell you a year later?
The classics and some new ones. A scenario, the question it forces, and the follow-ups that make it bite.
