The overture runs three minutes. At the end of it the curtain goes up on a corpse, and then it runs again. You are the prompter, in the hooded box at the lip of the stage. Nobody looks at you and nobody stops you, and you are the only person in the building who can be everywhere except where it matters. When the loop resets you keep nothing: no levels, no money, no equipment. You keep what you worked out.
The company is not a script Five of them move through the backstage on real schedules. Each has somewhere to be by a given bar, and each one re-routes when a door is bolted, when a lamp is out, when a prop is missing from where they left it. Play the same three minutes twice without touching anything and you will see the same three minutes. Touch one thing and the rest of the night bends around it.
That is the whole design. Interfering is the only way to make the next loop show you something the last one did not. You cannot be everywhere Nine rooms across a cutaway of the house: the flies, the grid, the wardrobe, the wings, the stage, the green room, the trap room, the prop store, and your own box. You see the room you are standing in.
