Several performers in orange robes stand or climb on poles at left and centre-top, while others wear black, white and red athletic clothing, some bare-chested or in white shorts. Spectators and an umbrella-holding onlooker stand nearby, and a large black speaker stack and truss scaffold sit on the right. Red walls and steps line the background.

Several performers in orange and saffron clothing and dark athletic wear hold poses on or beside the poles, while others in black and white shirts stand and watch nearby.
