A mesmerized stage performance

Dominic's school organized a mini concert and held it at a real theatre.  All 300 students of the school took part in half a dozen musical presentations.

Dominic had two roles. First, in his grade level's song and dance gig, he played the role of a 'Wallabee', hopping and jumping and singing across the stage.

He also participated in the finale, where all 300 school children got up on stage to sing one last song.  Dominic was in the front row with all the other grade 1 students. This row was lined up across the entire stage, from the left edge to the right.

As the children sang the final song -- the 80's hit "We are the world" -- they waved their outstretched hands and swayed left and right to the melody, moving as one.

Almost.

Everyone else was facing front toward the audience, except for Dominic, who was in the front row staring straight up at the ceiling, focused on a spot almost directly on top of him.

He was staring mesmerized at a flashing disco orb. It attracted him so much he was absently going through the motions of waving and swaying and singing, completely unconcerned about the hundreds of adults seated in front of him.
