Romeo and Juliet by T-Shirt Theatre

I had the pleasure of taking pictures at a rehearsal of T-Shirt Theatres upcoming performance of Romeo and Juliet. As usual, the kids were brilliant and provided an outstanding rendition of this most classic story. 

The show dates are:  Thursday, Nov. 15 at 7 pm and Sunday, Nov. 18 at 4:30 pm at Farrington High School Auditorium, 1564 N. School Street (at Houghtailing).  Performances are free.

Kat, it's totally different from what they normally do. I was very impressed.

Thanks Shun Wah. George showed me a picture of the pose that he wanted in that first shot, and I gulped . . . wasn't sure if I could pull it off. I chose a rather darkened area on the stage and had the couple sit right next to a curtain which is on the right in the shot. I bounced my flash off the curtain. I took a lot of shots, but not one of them had the couple positioned exactly right, so I had to nudge them together in photoshop.

Thanks Erick. Too bad you couldn't make it.

Yup Didi. All T-Shirt Theatre performances are free.

Great shots, especially the cover.
What's the secret to clear shots in a dark theater?

jalna said...

Thanks Dean. The "secret" is using a really good lens that lets in a lot of light. Most of the pictures I took with an 85mm, f1.2 Canon lens. It weighs a ton, but is awesome in low-light situations.
