A photograph of a cultural performance in an indoor hall with a stage backdrop covered in colourful balloons. On a raised gold and red throne at the back sits a seated figure in orange-brown robes, appearing to watch the programme. In the centre, a group of about ten boys in white dhotis and kurtas, several wearing red or maroon kurtas and shawls, dance with arms outstretched. Seated on orange mats on the floor in front are many children and some adults in white, yellow and orange clothing, several girls with long braids. A drummer sits at the right edge beside a drum. Decorative woven panels hang from the upper right.
