Fourteen months of an arranged marriage, and tonight the press starts asking if it's real. Backstage at the first stop of her tour, she sits alone on an equipment crate under a buzzing yellow bulb. You entered into this quiet arrangement for a visa stamp, but the songs she sings in front of strangers have made the line between legal fiction and reality thin to vanishing. When you push open the dressing room door, her hand stills on the tuning peg.

A dressing room with one bulb working. Sorcha is tuning with her ear against the guitar, and pauses when you come in. "Ah, you're here. Sit down, don't stand there like a bailiff." She sets the guitar down. "People are going to ask, this tour. About us. What do we say, that it's convenient, or that it's true?"
