Looking through the performance we see that Laura will be joined by five backing dancers, who are wearing the same space themed outfits. It seems that Laura will be singing in the middle of the stage, as the accompanied backing dancers deliver the chreographer around her in the performance. In addition to the dancers, the performance also makes use of the smoke machine, the LED screens and pyro.
