Shriners sit around a carpeted floor, dressed in stylized costumes of ancient Arabia. Five men appear to be part of the fraternal organization, dressed in the ostentatious wear of the nobility, while one man is dressed the part of a servant. The Al Malaikah Shrine Temple of Los Angeles hosted a pageant, of which the theme was One Thousand and One Nights, or Arabian Nights. The event was hosted at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
