A traveling group of actors called the Crossroad Players set up a stage in the northeast part of the city, by the chapel and the library. The group's led by Dell Bows, also called Sweatly. I also heard they plan to take over a theater. I don't know which one, or how close they are to making that happen.
The play was called "The Crown That Would Not Sleep." It was written many years ago by Sweatly's great-great-great-aunt, who's since passed away, and kept safe afterward by his great-grandmother. It clearly means a great deal to him, more than just a show.
The story goes like this. The villain's forgotten her lines. The hero's begun asking questions. The damsel no longer waits where she should. The hunter no longer remembers who she's hunting. The ending's unfinished, and the true ending was lost long ago. Sweatly refuses to write a new one out of respect for the original work.
Here's what I noticed about the cast. Sweatly plays the hero, with light yellow/blond hair, light skin, and dark green eyes. The villain has dark violet hair, light skin, and dark brown eyes. I didn't catch her name. The damsel has half-black, half-white hair, light blue skin, dark red eyes, and might be part fiend, maybe a tiefling. I didn't catch her name. The hunter's Sweatly's half-sister, with light brown/brunette, light skin, and dark green eyes. I heard she doesn't plan to stay with the group long-term. I didn't catch her name either. Clank, a small kenku, works as the stagehand. Sweatly's wife, who I believe is named Julie Bows, built the stage itself, but she wasn't part of the performance and wasn't introduced to us. I don't know why.
Afterward, everyone in the audience received a banner. I assumed it was just merchandise, something to remember the group by, but I'm not certain that's all it is.
