Texture and pattern, red velvet, leather and studs on the seats, a spotty shirt a grey sparky fluff jumper, pearls, hexagonal ceiling lights, pink red stained glass lamp shades, the sweep of the circle, the bleak stage set odd of coiffed fair, and sparkly bits on show

Laurel wreaths adorn the arches’
