So You Want to Be a Pirate!, Wednesday, period two
"So this was . . . not the plan for the day," Duke said, as the students entered. Their usual ship had been replaced by what was clearly a stage set, complete with proscenium arch and footlights. Duke looked like he had a headache. "Seriously, I figured we'd do sea shanties or something and was just trying to get a digital musician. And the damn Danger Shop turned into . . . this."
An overture started as he spoke, and holographic actors milled about, taking up their positions for the first scene. A digital stage manager, complete with headset, came out of the wings to shove Duke off the stage with a mop.
"Alright, jesus. You know you're imaginary, right?" He shook his head and gestured the students towards the audience area. "Anyway, I guess we're watching a pirate opera today. Enjoy."
