The Masque of the Red Death?

The Roger Corman film? I've seen it but it was a while ago and I don't
recall a scene similar to what I'm trying to create. Obi-Wan's
self-sacrifice in the first Star Wars film is a more recent instance.

The ensuing bang could perhaps be covered up by one of the cast streaming
loudly.

Sorry, but using the internet is frowned on during performances.
