What about those 2 mask things that something symbolise acting/theatre?

Some versions of the comedy and tragedy masks \link{http://images.google.co.uk/images?q=Comedy+and+tragedy+masks&hl=en&btnG=Search+Images\here}. Or something to do with curtains (not sure how...). Those mirrors with lights round (may be a bit girly).

Sorry should have described better

I did the card in question on black card with 3D paint. Dotted the outline of the masks.

How about a 'Lights, Camera, Action' type of thing ?
Or maybe a mock up of a theatre billboard ?
