A stage performance at a Dhasara 2010 event. Three female dancers in orange and gold costumes with jewelry sit in a prayer pose with palms joined above their heads, the centre dancer in purple and gold. Behind them a large orange backdrop shows a sunset, silhouettes of temple towers, and a dancer silhouette at left. A circular portrait at upper left shows a smiling man in an orange turban and orange robes, labelled by the backdrop's Dhasara 2010 banner; the portrait is a printed image, not a physical person on stage. Audience members sit in the foreground with their backs to the camera, including children and adults with hair in buns and braids.
