THEATER STAR: the final act
The Final Act
There are stars on the ceiling in the funeral home watching the sealed caskets beneath them, says Porous. They look for the “burp valve” on each of the gleaming boxes, but see none. Unseen bodies swell below them. Some stars worry about Exploding Casket Syndrome, but soon realize that, for ceiling stars, that is silliness redux. A balloon full of water is not afraid to pop. Let others below clean up. No one tells the families. [Off stage: the sound of a dial spinning this way and that and this, a safe being opened and shut.]
