Describe This

It is used almost every day by a handful of people who enjoy it more than anything. The dirty black surface is grainy and uneven, filled with holes in the ground from where wood was once nailed down.  I stand in the center, 400 seats facing me. The hot lights beam down on my body and I can feel my body temperature rising. If only for a few seconds, I am lifted up in front of an audience and entertaining the crowd. Even when the curtains close, this place is still where I feel most comfortable.
