Two dancers stand on a stage awash with cool blue light. The female dancer is en pointe with her arms extended in an ‘L’ shape above her. The male dancer supports her as they smile at each other. In the background an orchestra is dimly lit.
On a dark stage, a female dancer is lit by a dim, warm orange spotlight. She is balancing on the bull of her foot; the other leg is bent toward her chest. Her arms are extended in an ‘L’ shape above her. She is facing side on.
