PEEK SHOW

in a black space are two chairs. One dancer is on the ground with their leg outstretched touching one of the chairs and their arms behind them. The other dancer is balancing on the seat of the chair on their hands with one leg tucked up in the air.

A pullover knit sweater is laid out on the ground with the left arm extended to the side. There is an effect on the image that makes the sweater and the background look distorted in various shades of orange and purple.

Through a window in a dark room there is a night sky filled with lots of stars and purple and blue streaks. There is a dark shadow of a person in the window.

Sophie and Kiley look at the camera smiling. They are joined by a large fluffy purple elephant puppet, an old lady puppet with a light blue shall over her head, and a small pumpkin with googly eyes, straw hair, and a hat tied on its head. There is also a bouquet of small pink flowers.

The shadow of a person holding a telescope is in the forefront, with a background of blobs in different shades of blue and green and shadows of tall skinny trees.

Corina is looking at the camera through their large thin frame glasses. They have short hair tied in a half pony, and are wearing a black shirt and a short necklace with a pendant.

This collage of pictures features four dancers; one dancer is upside down with their arms and legs extended upwards. One dancer is kneeling down and touching the ground. One dancer is upside down and doing an angular pose with their knee up. One dancer is standing and concaving their chest while clasping their hands. Their backgrounds of each picture are green and yellow, grey and blue, deep red and light brown. Two of the dancers wear stripes.

Jared is bending at the hips, with his left leg and his arms fully extended in a strong stretch. The light above him casts part of his face and body in shadow, and highlights the tattoo on his right forearm which is a thick black band.
