And so, this is the night to salute the behind the scenes heroes;
Front of house,
Costumes,
Lighting,
Sound,
Props,
Stage management,
Set design,
Make up,
Photography,
Programme design,
Irene (You had to say that. Ed.)
The list is long.
But then you walk into the theatre with the kids and you see this and you think…
“We are blessed.
We are truly blessed.”
Mark Elvin. You are a GOD.
The rest of you? You are, well, gods too. (But don’t cross Irene.)

Well we ran off about 400 photos this afternoon at Newhaven Harbour and The Botanics. Here’s just a few as a wee taster. You can find them all on this Flickr link…
The New Rochelles were shot in sepia to reflect the stuffiness and formality of the time and their super wealth.



The Immigrants are shot in a blue duotone to represent the cold misery they are about to face in an America that ain’t gonna welcome them.



I’ve chosen a pinky hue for the Harlem chorus, but particularly contrasted them as the way of photos back then.
