Конец пьесы:
YY выходит на авансцену и долго смотрит в зал.
Есть какое-то устойчивое выражение?
Т.к. у меня что-то кроме банального "YY goes to the front of the stage..." не складывается ничего.
Thanks!

Thank you, Susan. I mistakenly thought the asker was looking for a phrase that can be used both literally and methaphorically...
