Backstage

A volunteer. A backstage tour. A room she can never quite find again.After being invited backstage following a cabaret performance aboard a luxury cruise ship, Lena expects nothing more than a brief look behind the curtain before returning to her cabin.Instead, she discovers a world that feels strangely ordinary.The crew are warm. The routines are comforting. Every corridor seems familiar. Every door appears to lead somewhere. Yet no one can tell her how to return to the passenger cabins.As rehearsals blend into daily life and performances become indistinguishable from reality, Lena must decide whether she is simply lost—or quietly becoming part of the backstage herself.Backstage is an original psychological thriller combining live magic, dark comedy, and surreal theatre. Set entirely behind the scenes of a cruise ship cabaret, it explores memory, identity, belonging, and the quiet ways we can lose ourselves inside places that make us feel unexpectedly at home.For anyone who has ever said, "I'll leave tomorrow."CastLena — Change JiaIris — Bai RuiyingMike — Zhuolang LiSophie — Wendie HouProduction TeamProducer — Haoming LiAssistant Producer — Yilin YanStage Manager — Jiaorong YuCrea
