/* =============================================================================
   STAGE theme (2.2) — bright talent-show / pageant look: stage lights, deep
   night-purple, hot magenta, gold and electric cyan. No traditional ornaments.
   Loaded after golestan.css (shared modern templates) when Admin → Appearance
   activates "Stage". Classic, Golestan and Simorgh are untouched.
