On their head is a simple pink crown with jagged points. They are standing on one leg, with the other bent and lifted, while both arms are stretched out wide, mid tap dance. They are wearing beige tap shoes. Behind them is a black chair and a pair of pink shoes lying on the floor. The scene is set against a completely black background, with pink lighting highlighting the figure on stage. iPhoto caption: Prude production photo by Daniel Wittnebel
