Chloe Sings The first act followed Julie out of the room, and the remaining students cheered them on. “Go for it!” “Break a leg.” “You can do it!” The door closed behind them and the room fell silent. The other band had looked very nervous. Chloe hoped they’d be all right. Just then, a screen mounted high on the wall flickered into life, and the students could see the studio for themselves. The audience was there and waiting for the first act to appear. “Fantastic!” said Zil. “I didn’t realize we’d be able to see the concert, too.” The band got into position and their drummer counted them in. Chloe watched carefully. Shots from all the cameras were being fed to the monitor and sometimes she could see clips of the audience reaction. “Mrs. Sharkey is there!” said Jeff, pointing at the screen. “Where?” asked Chloe. “I just caught a glimpse of her as the camera panned over the audience.” Then they saw her again. Mr. Player laughed at the students’ excitement.
