Prologue
The Footlight Theatre wasn't the only place to catch a show in rapture. In the late 40s an acting troupe impressed Ryan so much that he offered them a chance to open their own theatre in Rapture. The troupe naturally signed on and once the theatre was properly equipped for a variety of shows the curtain of The Curtain theatre flew open to a roaring crowd. The poor had few escapes from their harsh existence at the bottom of the sea floor, but a lively show could give even the most downtrodden of Rapture's citizens a break from the reality of being a lower class citizen in Rapture. All was going well for the acting troupe as they put on a show nearly every day of the week, and were greeted with more patrons as conditions deteriorated with the city beneath the sea. That is, all was going well until the night of New Year's Eve 1959.
An introduction to the characters of the troupe is soon to come. Then how the troupe survives over the course of the civil war will come into being.
