“Extreme Occident” takes place after another long public interaction moment, in which Madonna drinks beer and chats with someone from the audience. She returns to the stage to continue Madame X’s journey, and the curtains roll up, revealing a simple setup of four blocks of staircases, two of them with musicians sat on, in a dark blue lighting.

Madonna sings the first half of the song seemingly lost, as the lyrics state. She is guided by the lighting, following a narrow light path on the floor that slowly unfolds in front of her as she sings. She eventually sits in one of the stair blocks, which then start to spin around, slightly resembling the performance of “Lo Que Siente La Mujer” in Drowned World Tour 2001.

After the chaotic bridge Madonna comes down to stage floor once more to sing the final chorus. She then retreats to the darkness, walking backwards through a narrow space between two pieces of staircases, which closes after she passes.

The doorway then opens again, and the first dancer for “Breathwork” is revealed.
