# Image Archive: Songs of Innocence and Experience: The Standoff

![A dramatic stage scene from Rooftop Productions’ contemporary play 'Songs of Innocence and Experience' (《天真與世故之歌》). On a dark stage illuminated by sharp blue and yellow spotlights, a performer playing Milton stands center stage in front of a large vertical screen showing a close-up of himself singing. Actors dressed in futuristic white capes and dark performance attire are scattered across the stage, some brandishing long, thin white poles as spears, capturing a moment of epic tension. One performer kneels in the foreground left, while another bows on the right, emphasizing the play's intense, avant-garde theatrical aesthetic in Hong Kong. As the tension mounts, a performer sings, 'Twixt host and host but narrow space was left.'](https://www.rooftopproductions.hk/image/songs-of-innocence-and-experience-hkapa-20220617-202613)
