Drop the Act
Come and see the greatest show on Earth!
Come and see the greatest show on Earth!
A contortionist who can shrink herself so small, she fits inside this box no bigger than a thimble.
The most impressive act of all is when she discovers she’s a giant, breaks free of the box, and heads in the direction of her unknown future.
The audience “boos” as she walks out of the tent with a smile on her face, finally realizing she had this power all along.
The show must go on, and so must she.

Just Sixty Seconds
Oliver sat at a cold, grey steel-covered table. He knew he was next. The longer he sat here, the more confident he knew he wouldn’t make it. His hands were tied to the chair he was sitting on, pushed up against the steel table. A small camera in the corner of the ceiling with a tiny red flashing light was the only thing he was focused on. He felt sick to the stomach. He knew he didn’t have long.
