In a staged reading rehearsal for Rooftop Productions' contemporary theatre piece 'History Play', five actors sit on wooden stools under warm stage lighting. One actor, Burton Leung (Rizzly), gestures dramatically with an raised hand while speaking, his expression intense. Other performers, including Melo Man, Michelle Li, and Bill Iu, follow their scripts closely, creating a focused, intimate atmosphere of artistic exploration in Hong Kong. Burton Leung delivers the line with passion: 'When I scaled the high walls of Cadiz alone!'
