The dome of the Isaac Theatre Royal covered in sheeting and suspended in the backstage area. In the foreground, a small digger sits on the bed of a truck, and a crane is visible to the left.

Is the waiting crane and transporter ready to whip it away to another secret location in the dead of night?".
