2) 30 minutes

The performance lasts 30 minutes. "30" represents a quantity, doesn't it? You have a certain perception of how long it is, am I right? OK. Then why do some "30 minutes" seem longer than others? Why sometimes 5 minutes seem like an hour and 50 minutes like 10?
I believe for most people time passes faster when there's something interesting to do, to look at, something thrilling... but still theres nothing really moving it. Some "30 minutes" are longer - some 30 minutes last for years!

Time does not always move forwards. It moves back as well. Stands still. Yes, physically: stands still!
It's not a clock or numbers - they just have a symbolic meaning, they do not represent it or give any kind of physical direction.
The hands of the clock are moved by the mechanics not by the time - we all now that ...Don't we?!
