These are samples from one of two video tapes made at the performance. Captions correspond roughly to the scenes according to the stage directions, which were based loosely on the headings in Satie's score.
The West End costumes of Toujours Perdrix fame made a guest appearance. Produce was in the air. Liberties were taken throughout the performance—though the film score was followed as faithfully as the Ensemble's abilities allowed—and there was plenty of cleanup required afterwards.
