DescriptionThis image depicts a play at the KiMo Theater at Central Avenue and 5th Street in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The ten male cast members standing on the stage are all dressed as Roman soldiers. A single freestanding square doorway can be seen in the center of the stage. Both the right and left sides of the doorway were made to look like marble pillars. The actors on the right and left sides of the frame, as well as the actor in the center of the doorway, all have their right arms held up at a ninety degree angle. The background is made of a large dark colored curtain.
