On a dimly lit stage with warm spotlights, Rooftop Productions (天台製作) actors perform a scene from the play 'History Play' (《曲解莎劇》). In the center, a musician sits and plays an acoustic guitar while looking toward a standing actor who gestures expressively. To the right, another performer sings with arms raised, while a keyboardist plays in the background. The projection screen above displays the lyrics: 'Setting aside his high blood's royalty.' As the performers embody these historical figures, Melo Man delivers the line: 'Pale trembling coward, there I throw my gage.'
