In this dramatic scene from Rooftop Productions' contemporary theatre piece 'Songs of Innocence and Experience' (《天真與世故之歌》), performers stand on a dimly lit stage in front of a large, vertical screen. The screen projects a top-down, bird's-eye view of actors lying on flight cases arranged in a cross formation. On stage, performers in casual attire cluster around similar flight cases, interacting with a central figure who lies flat, mirroring the composition on the projection. The moody, stark lighting emphasizes the thematic tension between spiritual motifs and modern theatrical art. A performer standing by the center console softly delivers the line: 'But I'm not Jesus...'
