  Hey guys! Another set of photos...these ones come from a show we did a few summers ago that was written by one of our imensly talented members. It centered around a female news reporter during and after WWII trying to sort out a series of art thefts, HUAC meetings, and mad scientists. Enjoy the 40's flavor!   ------------- Community Theater makes us smile |

40s flavour indeed! Looks like colour stills from a film noir of the period. Fantastic sets, too!
Your lighting guy deserves big kudos too.
Terrific stuff.

Thanks for the amazing compliment! Thats what we were going for, it was a series of three original shows that we wrote/directed/produced about America in the 20's/30's and 40's, all murder mystery/noir types. Take a look at http://www.campkiwanee.com - www.campkiwanee.com to see some other stuff we have done! ------------- Community Theater makes us smile |

Great stuff! That's a large company you have! Again, the lighting is great, even for cast shots/production stills. Our lighting guys are kinda heavy on the floods, and our casts are occasionally criticised for squinting. I think I'll show them those pics. A picture's worth a thousand words. |

Thanks. Sometimes things "on the cheap" work better than the fancy tech stuff. We have some things that we have collected over the years in regards to lighting, but nothing very up to date or fancy, but the simplicity works well. Thanks for the comment! ------------- Community Theater makes us smile |
