A dimly lit stage scene shows a single figure seen from behind, wearing a long black hair covering or headpiece that falls down the back and a red-orange skirt or dhoti with a patterned top. The figure holds a silver trishul upright in one hand while the other hand rests at the hip, standing in front of a large carved stone relief of a multi-armed deity with ornate ornaments. Green stage lighting and haze surround the scene. The figure is not visible in full detail, so no appearance-based identification is made; the figure is described by role and clothing only.
