Act 1: {∅, S(∅), S(S(∅)), S(S(S(∅))), .....}

Setting: Brightly lit stage. A man enters, stepping slowly. With a miserable sigh he faces

the audience (which we can’t see because the stage is so brightly lit).

“The polar bears are drowning and there is nothing at all that we can do about it.” He places a tall, erect object on the stage. And lays down.

Meanwhile another man enters the stage, stepping slowly. With a miserable sigh he faces the audience.

The stage gradually keeps filling. Each man sighs deeper as he tries to push his vertical object forward.

“Hold on! Why are we still watching this?” a voice is heard from the audience.
The audience grows restless and tries to leave, but it is difficult because the stage is the only lit place in the theater.

Act 2: {ω, S(ω), (S(S(ω)), S(S(S(ω))), ...}

Setting: A theater across the street. Darkness. Sounds of crackling and scraping with flickering lights.

Some light bulbs are better than others.
