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.

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.
