The theater anywhere is a magical place—but in Liavek, where wizardry is as common as unemployed actors, the theater is a place where magic rules.
"May These Events" is opening for its first (and only) run, and wizard Oten Chitaru is behind the scenes. Chitaru thinks nothing of producing steaming hot cups of tea from his sleeves for the actors awaiting auditions—what effects will he produce for the audience?
And if that weren't enough magic for one evening, what will happen when the mystically reanimated actor finally decides to take his revenge on the director?
With two bonus stories set in the same universe!
