You are seeing the long exposure of the stage lights.

I agree with Charlie's evaluation. It may also be a problem where your camera
did not set to flash synch speed and you're getting an ambient light exposure
with a flash pop whether full, partial, or full with too great a working
distance. Sometimes you'll get a very useful and interesting effect; but not
too interesting when you are expecting a straight flash shot. Then again, if
the stage light was facing your lens, you may just have a flare effect.
