Yes, you already begin to think of them this way. The show is about to begin! She announces, to which the deafening silence responds by… leaving the room, succeeded by an enthusiastic cheer. At this very moment, all the patrons of the establishment, including the few little kids that are here, begin to bang their forks, spoons or any other form of cutlery they might have against their plates and/or glasses. Even those standing up try to contribute to the noise, by ...
