NARRATOR:  

Stand still for a moment. In front of this luminous glass.  

SFX: Single musical note. Humming moves from left to right.  

NARRATOR:  

There are worlds we can’t quite get to, just beyond our reach. Everywhere around us.  

SFX: Light, whispery haunting sounds/words coming from the opposite side of the glass from where we are standing.  

NARRATOR:  

Glancing through a half-opened door, we catch fragments of stories unfolding. 

SFX: Deeper, warped, muffled, underwaterish sounds burbling up – almost understandable, but not quite, still distant, as if coming from the other side of the glass  

NARRATOR:  

We can kind of make them out. We can see shadows. Silhouettes. Movement on the other side of milky, foggy glass. Overheard conversations behind closed doors.  

SFX: More muted sounds 

NARRATOR:  

Can you see anyone over there? Wave your arm. Do they see you?  

SFX: More muted sounds. A beat. 

NARRATOR:  

Let’s cross the threshold now. Move around to the other side.  

SFX: Footsteps, the sound changes from one audio realm through in-betweeness to a new audio realm – what was unintelligible through the glass is now revealed.  

NARRATOR (a whisper):  
An edge was breached 

And just became 

The back of something else. 

CHRISTOPHER WILMARTH (MALE VOICE ACTOR):  

When I was a child, I would tell stories to myself and make magic. I was always on the lookout for a place with the light just so and the colors right, and if I was quiet, or hummed a long time just one or two notes, that I would become transparent and be a part of the place I was in.
