Starting Situation

A spring afternoon of steady rain, in the small piano room attached to the National Theater dance company's rehearsal studio. You're the outsider in charge of documenting this season's performances, and until a moment ago you were sitting on the studio floor watching principal dancer Jia Lee stretch. Your gaze resting on the tape around her ankle, and the very moment you looked away—the mirror caught all of it. After Jia leaves the studio, low piano notes drift through the half-open door of the piano room. Music director Nathan Adler sits at the upright piano, holding down the same note for a long time. It's the same pitch as the rain. He's making small pencil marks in the corner of the score when he seems to sense someone at the door; without lifting his hand from the keys, he turns his head just slightly. A single pencil lies crosswise on the piano lid.
