Pictures from our school's production this past weekend

Our production opened (and closed) this weekend. It was pretty darn close to perfect--which is saying something for a low-budget high school production, I think. ;D
pictures, as promised--until I can swipe my dad's camera, I'm stuck with those of the extremely-hyper-back-stage variety (and one I ganked off Facebook):



obligatory cast shot. : D


standing: Wizard (sans wig, alas), Sir...Luce? I think?, a lady, the Queen, another lady, and Fred. Very Happy
sitting/crouching/whatever: yet another lady, the King
All of our seniors, actually...they're so awesome! D:
Especially the King, Queen, and Fred. With extra props to Fred because she had to fall out a window and stuff.


me n' the kitchen wench. : D


my 'daddy' jester and i. xD
also, take note of my super-creepy staff...it looks a bit like the doll from Saw, no?


yes, i am aware that this picture is spectacularly obnoxious. i just wanted to show off my freaky-deaky-jester's-staff-of-doom...and my rather overlarge costume. : D

that's all for now. i'll try and get some actual stills up later.

Thanks for that. It looks like it was a fun production, and it reminded me of my high school theatre days.

I love seeing pictures from different productions! Looks like a really fun cast!

Your king looks like a fun guy! Totally has the right Sextimus attitude even for a candid group picture!

He's really super awesome (and also great at dealing with minor stage disasters: in the middle of 'Normandy', for instance, a particularly exaggerated gesture sent his crown falling off his head and cracking in two. He managed to pull off wearing half a crown for the rest of the show, and even turned the pieces into little puppets for 'Man to Man Talk'. Which was absolutely priceless, crown-people or no).

Looks great, especially for a high school production!

Your school must have a very good theatre department!

It was a lot of fun!
We rented our costumes from the Costumer. They tend to vary in quality (mine had a rather icky and mysterious stain beneath the little Jester-collar thing, and the Knights' costumes kept losing little gold shiny pieces as they went)...but they infallibly look great onstage! Very Happy

Thanks!

Alas, we do not have a theater department so much as we have one very, very dedicated man and a lot of fundraising stamina. Very Happy
I'm very glad that we managed to fake having one, though!

We totally have a no-real-program-but-a-really-dedicated-person theatre department as well!
