The image is taken inside with a dark background and looks like it is on a stage. It looks like the stage is lit with red lights. The image captures a group of six performers, three at the front, three at the back, all with outstretched arms and looking like they are singing. They are all looking towards the left, out of shot where the audience must be. The performers are wearing different brightly coloured clothing and leather jackets, dresses or tops. The central performer is using a wheelchair and is wearing black leather trousers, a black jacket and a green top.

Introducing the Punjab to the Potteries callout for South Asian writers by Appetite and New Vic Theatre is a black-and-white photograph of Baldev Bansal, dated 1964. He is a young man, perhaps in his early twenties, of South Asian descent. Baldev stands in the ginnel or alleyway running between the backs of rows of terraced houses. He is looking directly towards the camera and is dressed very smartly with a shirt and tie and striped pullover. In his right arm he cradles a small, sleeping baby in a bonnet. A short distance behind them, a young, white-skinned boy of around 7 years of age and dressed in what looks to be a football strip, looks on.
