The Conclusion

The first draft is finished. Kath who plays GMOB attends her own funeral as herself. She can't attend it as her deceased character because this is a church drama group and they can't deal with the afterlife. She reads a note she left behind before she died:

To the Church of Rise Park Drama Group. By the time you hear this I will be gone. The show will be over. The curtain will fall. The cast will leave the stage. The audience will leave the building. Nothing will be left but words. Words on a page. A page in a pocket. We’ve been through a lot together in this Church Hall. I’ve been here since the beginning. My initials are on the wall. Weddings. Christenings. Funerals. Plays. We’ve said our thank yous and proposed our toasts. We’ve remembered our pasts and considered our futures. Now nothing is left for me to do. Except ask you to raise your glasses and think of where you have been and where you are going. To thank you for coming and say sorry you are leaving. To say I hope you enjoyed your evening. To wish you a safe journey home. And to tell you the toilets are down the corridor on the left. Then and only then will it be the end of Acts of Communion.

This reminds me of Forced Entertainment's Showtime:

'There's a word for people like you, and that word is audience. An audience likes to sit in the dark and watch other people do it. Well, if you've paid your money - good luck to you. However, from this end of the telescope things look somewhat different - you all look very small and very far away and there's a lot of you. It's important perhaps to remember that there are 'more of you' than there are of us. So, if it does come to a fight, you will undoubtedly win.'
