Almost

I was in a strange building. I was going up some stairs that came up to a dead end. I thought it was strange but I turned around just to see another dead end. I knew it couldn't be real so I did a half-assed reality check that didn't work because I got distracted. Suddenly the direction I was headed was no longer a dead end. There was a tiny opening I could slip into. I shimmied my way through to a dusty old library. It was a relatively small one but the layout was like a maze. I had this feeling like I was trespassing so when I heard footsteps, I hid between behind one of the bookshelves. In the small gaps made by the books and shelf I could make out a figure. It was a lady rolling a bucket and mop. She was getting closer and I tried to loop past to avoid her but the footsteps sounded like they were coming from exactly where I was headed. And this would happen every time I turned around. At this point I'm at the Library's crossroads and I'm trying figure out where the lady might be so I could head the opposite way. I ended up choosing a direction and running. I ended up in a very dark, very crowded space. There was an occasional flash that would light the place up enough to make out I was in a theatre. The rest is hazy. Some guy was on stage. He got heckled and a spotlight beamed out on a guy in the dark crowd. The heckler was aggressively urged to go up on stage. I felt embarrassed for the guy. The speaker was not happy and could see as soon as the heckler spoke on stage, everyone in the crowd headed towards the exit.
