On a dimly lit stage, a performer stands in the foreground, illuminated by warm pink and blue stage lighting, appearing deep in thought. In the background, four other actors are positioned around a large, professional equipment road case; one man stands while another sits atop the case, and two women sit on the floor nearby. This evocative scene is from the contemporary Hong Kong theatre production 'Songs of Innocence and Experience' by Rooftop Productions, exploring themes of performance and existential reflection. The performer in the foreground asks, "Have you thought about leaving?"

Sum Cheuk-yiu pauses for reflection during this evocative scene from Songs of Innocence and Experience. 'Have you thought about leaving?' she asks, as the ensemble gathers around the production gear.
