Because it so might not be.
I've posted this on the 'Plot' forum too, but I was afraid it would get lost:
I'm sure most of you have got better things to do, so I won't outline the entire plot, just the main bit that I'm afraid isn't clear enough. Unfortunately, it may be even less clear without the rest of the plot to back it up, but here goes...
The dancers from the musical Cats have started to act like 'Schrodinger's Cat' i.e. they have taken on the properties of electrons due to the hyperreal, anthropomorphised atmosphere in which they work. The more the musical is repeated, the greater the danger becomes to the dancers who, if they stay there for too long are likely to turn up dead from cyanide poisoning. (The cyanide is what Schrodinger suggested in his thought experiment.)
Does that make a baggy sort of sense (as far as the plots of musicals go)?
