Kids keep asking “is it almost over” with no programme sheet. Answer from the density of dancers still ahead, or just say we do not know. Not counting elephants as a leftover proxy, and not drum cues for the next troupe as the whole answer.

Honest “we do not know the exact end” plus a simple cue helps — if dancer blocks still look dense ahead, say there is clearly more coming. Avoid fake countdowns you cannot keep.

Save “almost” for after the loud climax energy, not after the first fancy segment.

If the asking is itself a meltdown loop, a short walk-back beats debating the schedule.
