Chapter 26 – Nigel Comes Clean
The first part of this section is Sadie recounting the first musical number, Don’t Stop Believing. It’s also in present tense, which annoyed me, but I guess you could argue it reflects how Sadie is hyperaware of the present while she’s performing so I’ll let it go.
The first act goes really well and Sadie is the perfect leading lady despite not having any practice in the role, naturally. During intermission Nigel appears and apologizes, and explains: he DID get Lucey pregnant, but she agreed to keep it a secret so his parents wouldn’t get upset and ship him back to his awful hometown in England. Also, he’s only been playing the role of a punk womanizer; at home he’s really a music theater nerd. They talk a little bit about how he’ll eventually need to come clean to his parents, etc. My lack of caring is boundless.
Deep breaths. Three more chapters.
