The apprehension felt before "going on stage" may be seen on the young girl's face as she waits in the wings of a surreal interior.  Her animal companion does not have the capacity to fear his ability to perform and, therefore, only shows an interest in the unseen situation outside the frame.

A seascape hanging on the wall also appears at the figure's feet in the form of sand, water and shells; a comment on how the outside world of the "stage" also affects the inside world of the actor.

Her Cloak, appearing as a safe haven, is being slowly discarded as destiny takes her toward a new position in the unknown outside her present frame of reference.
