A dark indoor stage event seen from the audience, with a performer in a red-orange costume and dark loose trousers standing centre stage holding a trident. Blue and yellow stage lights beam across the scene beneath a lighting truss, and a large backdrop screen behind him shows a projected image. Red curtains frame the stage edges. Silhouetted audience members fill the foreground. The performer appears to be a stage performer rather than a verified identity, and his face is not clearly visible.
