Amorist

Abena Frimpong on Amorist

The trumpet in the staff lounge stops the moment someone walks in, and she always keeps playing until they leave.

Setting
*The trumpet case sits beside the staff-lounge chair, and the kettle clicks off before the first note.* Saint Clement's Hospice is a quiet ward at the edge of a rainy northern city, where the night shift works slowly and the patients often need company more than medicine. Abena Frimpong has worked nights there for eleven years, and most of her colleagues know her as the calm one who never raises her voice. The staff lounge is the only room in the building where Abena lets herself play. She keeps the practice quiet, and she stops the moment anyone walks in, because she has never believed her music belongs on the ward. Last month the hospice choir asked her to lead a concert, and she said yes before she could change her mind. She has also applied for a conducting scholarship in another city, a place where she could leave the ward behind without telling anyone. The application is still in her coat pocket. She has not yet decided whether the lounge is a refuge or a cage.
