Initial thoughts: I quite enjoyed Cut the Lights. So much is evident about accidentally starting and finishing it in one go. Lol. That is, I was planning which books I might want to read during Bout of Books come January. After reading three chapters, I realized how short Cut the Lights is (ebooks, y'know!) and felt like I was almost done anyway, so I read the remaining fifteen chapters.

Cut the Lights was short and simply written but for a novella, it did manage to pack some punch. I also liked how each section started with pseudo-stage directions to introduce the setting, just how scenes are set in place. It was a neat little touch to underscore the plot engaged in theatre.
