All the World's a Stage, Pt. 2

Has it really been so long since my last post? Well I'll be. Guess a two-week vacation will do that, huh?

Anyways, I was in Montana, visiting the Brother during his tenure at the Ft. Peck Theater. So it seemed like it would have been silly to not capture the whole theater thing in some way. So I opted to pick the folks working behind the scenes and give them their time in the spotlight.

And with that, I suppose it's fitting that the Brother himself is first (not planned!), working on some kind of lighting thing. I can't tell you anything about it, but I do really like the way the shot came out, especially considering I didn't use a flash.

Close on his heels is Phil, the set designer. Sadly, this shot was taken just before he placed the monstrous turkey on the set. Believe you me, it was a big one.

Kehler was in charge of costumes, and I was hoping to get a shot of her amongst the costumes themselves. Sadly, they were in another room hanging up, and it wasn't all that photogenic. But I think this works out pretty well, really. If I was feeling really industrious, I would have named the two dress forms. Some other time, maybe.

Last, but by no means least, is Annie, who wore many hats (but not the costume hats) for the summer. I opted to capture her as Prop Diva, since ASM, in my head, didn't yield as many ideas. And really, how could I pass up another opportunity to get a shot of someone holding a sword? Also be sure to note the pink flamingo and rubber chickens, which I imagine are staples of any good theater prop shop.

I have some more vacation pictures to come, as well as some other stuff I've had sitting around, so I'll try to get into a normal posting schedule again until I'm all caught up.
