Gigsta, what happens in the theatre's lobby?

"Muted sounds of hands clapping, before crowds pour through the doors from the theatre. Whispers and wrinkled clothing echo in the corridor. They are made cautious by the silent piece they’ve seen. There’s a queue at the garderobe, a few more minutes for a potential glass of wine. Small groups of silhouettes are now in the lobby, 'on the way, on the move, paused, postponed, out of sync, out of joint, provisional, practically absent, say, not here …'

And then the soft notes of 'Slower' start playing."
