Fred is waiting for the show to start. The Players arrive: Nell, Bethany, Talitha, Jenkin, Albert and a strange mechanized creature, Kevin on Keyboards. They tell Fred that they are slaves of the Storytellers who control their every move.

The Storytellers arrive: Great Aunt Repetitus, Uncle Erraticus and Uncle Oblivious. The Players react fearfully and the stories begin.-4 women, 7 men
