Chapter 420 Baymard's Emerald Theatre
Back in Baymard, the people were all jolly and merry, as tonight.... was the grand opening of Baymard's Emerald Theatre.
In the afternoon..... there as a whole cutting ribbon celebration.
So with all that out of the way, people could just come over to watch any show of their choice.
The theatre had 10 three-storey buildings within its premises..... with each building would have 2 high ceiling stages within them.
The first floor would be where popcorn, drinks and so on would be sold..... and on the 2nd and 3rd floors, the audience would find a massive stage on each floor.
So, with 10 buildings in total... Baymard would end up having 20 stages altogether.
.
"Oh, dear!
We've booked a ticket for the 'Amazing Flying Dutchman'.... so how can we be late?"
"Hurry!.... the dancing swan show is going to come on any moment from now!
We have to get into theatre 3 as soon as possible!"
"I heard that the music show will have 6 never heard songs before, so how can I miss it?
And I heard that their number one song will be: My heart will go on!
Just the name itself shows that it's going to be mind-blowing, so we definitely have to go to theatre 6 no matter what!"
"I think our show is in theatre 8!
Quickly! Quickly!
We need to get our snacks and settle down fast before the show starts!"
"Yes... can I have a medium bag of salted Pretzel buns, a large Fanta and a small bag of popcorn?"
"_"
The crowd swarmed around the scene like bees, as they tried to find the right building and door where their selected show would be taking place.
Everyone wore their best attires, as they didn't know what to expect.
And very soon, the entire place was either filled with couples, families.... and even cliques of friends that had gathered up just for tonight.
Today was Harvey's 3rd day in Baymard.
Harvey was a very popular jester in the empire of Yodan.
He was soon as the laughing killer.
This was because it was once said that his performances were so funny that one could laugh themselves to death if they weren't careful.
In short, he was a big celebrity in the Jester world... as most new jesters that tried to break into the field also looked up to him as one of the greatest as well.
A while back, he had heard about Baymard being the best place for tourists to visit.
So he and his family had come here for a proper vacation.
He had been here for 3 days... and he dared say that the stories about Baymard really didn't give enough justice to the place.
Everything about this new empire was simply breathtaking and heavenly.
.
And while he was here, he had also heard and read about this theatre thing through the radio, from people on the streets, as well as the newspapers.
So today, he had managed to get a few last-minute tickets for himself and his family.
One should know that the tickets for all shows had already been on sale for over a month now.
And just because he had bought the tickets late, he didn't have many options left.
Hence he could only get what was available.
As a comedian, of course, he wanted yo see their stand-up comedy thing..... but it was already sold out.
And all that was left, were rockets for some Circus thing.
One shouldn't be fooled!
The reason why the circus thing wasn't sold out yet, want because people didn't want to watch it.
Nope!
It was because that theatre was the largest.... as it had a bigger stage and more audience seats instead.
Hence they were able to squeeze out some tickets from the stores.
And surprisingly, each ticket had a seating number on it!
How odd... but brilliant!
.
Stepping into building 3, they immediately went forward to order some snacks.
And after they were done, they finally presented their tickets at the doors of theatre 5 and immediately went in to take their seats.
Harvey looked at his watch and sighed from relief.
'Phew!'
They had finally made it just 1 minute before the show began.
Immediately, the lights turned slightly dim... and the loud sounds of drums could be heard echoing throughout the hall.
'Bam! Bababam! Bababam! Babammmm!'
As the drums played, some sort of smoke immediately arose from the stage..... instantly making the place look more and more mysterious to those watching the scene.
Everyone excitedly tried to gage out what was happening there, and soon..... more and more people jumped out from within the smoke and began dancing like crazy.
And coupled with the stunning light show that was happening there as well, everything made Harvey and his family clap and cheer eagerly.
What an entrance!
And after the smoke had cleared up, and the dance had ended... a man wearing the longest purple hat that they had ever seen, came out all dressed up in sparkly clothes.
"Ladies and Gentlemen!
Boys and girls!
Welcome to Baymard's first-ever Circus act!" The host said.
And as he spoke, he removed his large hat and gave a slight bow to the audience.
"I know that most of you are confused about what a circus show really is... but don't fret!
Because by the end of tonight's show... you will know all that you desire.
As things.... might not always be what it seems..."
With that, the host took out several Rose's from his coat and immediately squished them up together in his palms.
And then he shot it up into the air.
Then, something miraculous happened!
Rather than seeing rose petals, the guest could see a bird fly out, as well as some butterflies.
'Poufff!!!!!'
Wahhhh!!!!
How did he do it?
'Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!'
Everyone was mesmerized..... especially the children.
They kept screaming and jumping like crazy!
The hos was a magician!
That was all they could think of.
.
'Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!'
"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" The host said while bowing numerous times to them.
"Now.... let's get the show rolling shall we?"
