Somewhat dark from the storm and the space. This can be played in front of the main act. 517Act 3 the interior of the place as she turns away Aeneas Song #15. Golden look with royal reds and purples, but a much more dampened mood, as the distain Dido has is unfurled. 618Act 3 the interior of Dido's Grave chamber as she chooses to die. A blank grey cold look as the choice of death is made over love. A feeling of emptiness and unresolved loss.

 Take your time!  If you think it looks good, then it looks good!  We can always go back if the director doesn’t like something!
