A wide shot captures a dynamic scene from Rooftop Productions' contemporary theatre piece 'History Play' (曲解莎劇). On a minimalist stage bathed in warm, focused lighting, seven actors stand in a line, dressed in black contemporary garments. From left to right: Shirley Wong, Michelle Li, Wong Chun-lung, Chin Wing-kar, Burton Leung, Melo Man, and Bill Iu engage in an expressive performance, some holding scripts while others project their voices towards the audience. The background screen displays Latin and Chinese text as the cast recites: "Deo gratias Anglia redde pro victoria."
