The Dark Blue City

I was walking briskly with Bryan Meaux through what I thought at first to be and extremely dark version of Chicago or some other city.  After reflecting on the images I remember, it does not seem that it was Chicago at all.  It was night, and everything was black or dark shades of blue.  Everything seemed geometric and mostly at right angles, but it was very realistic despite the uncanny perfection.  Passersby and cars in the streets only appeared as shadowy forms.  There were small, white squares and rectangles of street lights and building lights, but nothing seemed to be affected by them and everything remained dark and with a bluish hue.  I assumed that we were headed to work, but nothing seemed familiar.

Bryan mentioned something about being late, and I assured him that we would be okay because it was only 8:30 (PM, I assumed).  I found nothing odd about this.  Towards the last leg of our journey through this dark  blue city, there was a huge overpass to cross what seemed like several streets.  The structure was shaped like a large trapezoid, with the larger side facing downwards, and the two sloped sides making the covered stairwells with escalators on either side.  The bottom of the trapezoid was cut out by the streets that the walkway overlooked.  The whole thing seemed unnecessarily large, and it was of course dark blue with even darker blue windows.  Bryan and I walked up the escalators and I checked the time on my watch (iPod nano watch, same one I wear every day).  It was 9:10, and we were supposed to be at our destination (work, I think?) at 9:00.  We started running up the escalators and down the narrow corridor of the structure to the other side.  Bryan got ahead of me.

I was inside a large building.  I couldn't tell if this was the "work" that Bryan and I were headed to, but Bryan was nowhere to be found, and I actually have no recollection of either being or seeing myself.  It appears that I was some sort of invisible consciousness floating around that could see and hear.  However, I was aware that the building was in the same dark blue city as before.

The huge room that I was spectating in was shaped like the outline of a square with one side cut out, so that the middle of the square was filled, leaving only three hallway-like rooms (from the top down, the rooms would've looked like this: |_| ).  The ceilings were up several hundred feet high, so you couldn't really see the true shape of the ceiling lights.  The rooms had gray carpeting and off-white columns evenly spaced throughout-- the walls on the outer edge of the rooms were dark blue, with windows showing the outside to similar shades of blue.  The inner walls were white, and I could not tell what was within big square column that made up the inner walls of three combined rooms.  There were performers either performing or rehearsing, I couldn't tell, but they ran about and danced, acted and sang and moved set pieces around in all three rooms.  I remember metal framed chairs with patterned upholstery (the kind you would find in a hotel conference room) being used as part of the set. I did not recognize any of them.  At the end of what I can remember, one person began singing very loudly, and a bunch of people told him to go to the other end (around two corners) as no one could hear him since he was in the wrong place.  He quickly began maneuvering over to the right location, still holding out a long note.  I don't remember what he was singing or any of the specifics of what the actors were saying and singing.
