Honestly, at first Hoshi had only agreed to the part because Grazia asked him to, but he’d really enjoyed it more than he thought he would!  The whole thing; from rehearsals, to putting up the set, to costumes… and especially, working together with someone so important to him…

Grazia.

Now, the last scene was the kiss scene: he and Grazia, in front of a whole crowd…  He thought he would be nervous, but no; instead, he felt elated as he stared down into her eyes, leaning forward slowly, the audience forgotten to him.
