The Godox flash for event, creating a simili studio soft light
1

Like that

Note that I have turne the head 180° in my direction the photographer

This config implies that there is a ceiling not too far  (3-7m) from the flash if not I just shoot directly with adapetd angles in the direction of the subject

The Pixco soft box gives a wide uniform not harsh light BTW The Pixco collapses (to get completely flat) it is light and is easy to carry.

The camera is set in M mode ES adjusting SS at quite a high value if peiople (dancers) are moving fast, aperture as desired. Combining aperture, ISO and power of flash allows to combine ambiant light and flash, useful when there are colored lights.
