The door opens before Jeremiah can reach it and from it strides a tall, heavily made up man. "I would like to thank you all for coming on such short notice. This-" he stops and takes in the sight of the four misfits before running a hand through his receding hairline. "I was expecting more of you to show. Never mind, the show must go on."
He turns on his heel and motions for the four of you to follow.
"I really must apologize for hiring you all on such short notice but my usual players aren't available right now. Each of you will be paid two-hundred-and-fifty dollars for tonight's performance and there will be further work for those interested."
As he speaks he leads you through a side door in the lobby, through a large empty room and then onto the stage. From your vantage point it is clear that there isn't a single person in the audience.
"The job is quite simple, all you need to do is-"
Suddenly, the stage shakes as a loud, thunderous noise drowns out every other noise. It gradually fades but doesn't go away. The roof of the theater begins to sag inward as if a great weight was pressing on it. Claudius draws his fencing foil and pulls a smart phone from his pocket. He shakily makes a call but only manages to shout "They're early-" before the ceiling rips, acting more like metal than wood or stone, and showers both the stage and the empty audience with debris. Claudius is thrown to the ground, crushed by an ancient-looking floodlight.
Through the hole in the ceiling the four of you can see the night sky, the moon, and a single star shining brighter than it should. As you watch, three pieces of sky seem to drip through the hole like honey. Instead of splattering when they hit the floor, the amorphous blobs begin moving towards the stage, pushing chairs out of the way as they do.
