"Behind the stage: students were busy preparing for their first performance of Chicago the musical. This picture shows how several students tried to help an actor put on contact lenses. As a photographer invited to record the performance of Fudan University's musical troupe, I took this picture when I walked down the backstage to capture their preparation status. This performance was on stage in the last month of my exchange program in Fudan University, and being a photographer there is one of my best memories with the students there."
