I LOVE the ’shades dancing and waiting’ picture - beautiful, as always.

Love the winger view!

Lovely and fun! I will say again how jealous I am that you can freely take pictures like this. I would be sooooo busted by stage managment and our union. I actually got away with a lot during Dr. Dolittle, but never in Camelot. :-(

More beautiful shots. Just wondering, what kind of camera do you use?

Sandi, I’m with you….unions and stage management can be rough sometimes :-( But i think Equity is a lot tougher than ours!

All these gorgeous photos are just a coffee-table book waiting to happen (I don’t know if that’s a familiar term there, but here it means an oversize book filled with big, beautiful pictures). I would pay good money for this and so, too, would many other fans of ballet. Find yourself a publisher!
