The sun sets behind the Stratford Festival's Festival Theatre building. A Canadian flag blows in the wind on the roof of the building, a bright splash across the orange sky. In the foreground is a translucent image of Canadian actor Paul Gross, imposed over the image. He wears a collared white shirt and a black vest, with his hands clasped in front of his chest. The image is from the Festival's 2000 production of Hamlet, in which Gross played the title role.
