The Projector: A Speculative Fiction Modern Parable

One day, an old Medicine Show wagon on wooden spoke wheels mysteriously rolls into town. Positioned across from the closed-down movie house, the wagon attracts long lines of people waiting to see what’s inside. Our protagonist, a lover of books and exotic places, is intrigued and decides to get a ticket and see for herself.

The wagon’s paint is old and faded, and a small coin box takes only quarters and extends a single ticket, good for two. The people who come out of the wagon are mostly the same, but different in some way. Some are upset, some are delighted, and lovers either love each other more or detest each other. It’s a unique experience that our protagonist realizes cannot be found in books.

The wagon’s arrival is mysterious. Rumors say it was transported on a flatbed wagon, but no one knows for sure. The wagon’s appearance is amusingly odd, with swirls and fanciful decorations that resemble the Wizard of Oz fortune-telling setup. But our protagonist is no Dorothy – she has black hair, likes wearing it down, and would never be caught wearing a founcy gingham dress with a pinafore.

As the only girl in her family, she spends her time helping with cleaning. Her main incentive is to finish early, so she can read in peace. However, she finds herself drawn to the line of people waiting for the wagon, and she eventually decides to check it out.
