I was asked to photograph another amazing performance by the Terra Firma Theatre Company called “Manuscripts Don’t Burn” which was part of the Figment Festival on Governors Island. You may remember my photographs of their work a few months ago which you can see here. This company is always doing amazing work while pushing the...
For me, living in New York is about being able to take advantage of all the wonderful theatre this city has to offer. The range of works being produced is at times overwhelming and it can be a difficult decision to choose what to see and what not to see. Occasionally, in searching one finds...
Have you ever had the privilege of listening to beautiful jazz music live in an intimate setting? If not, you missed out on quite an experience last night. “Where All the Rivers Go to Sleep” ran last night at the beautiful Duane Park Restaurant & Lounge downtown, and I had the pleasure of being asked...
If that post title doesn’t grab your attention, I don’t know what will. Ashley and I had the pleasure of seeing the band Evil Prince Ludwig the Indestructible playing at a bar called The Frying Pan, basically a barge docked to Pier 66 at 26th street in midtown Manhattan. If you ever want an interesting...
Another fabulous show designed by Andreea Mincic. This is Half Straddle’s Nurses in New England which was performed at SoHo Think Tank’s Ice Factory 2010 Festival at the Ohio Theatre down in SOHO. The problem when photographing a musical comedy is trying not to laugh so hard that your pictures go blurry. Beautiful scenery and...
If you ask me to tell you what I know of Romania, it isn’t much. But what little I do know comes from being a long time friend of Andreea Mincic, a New York Scenic Designer from Romania who I had the pleasure of meeting back in grad school. Andreea is a great friend and...
I think we’ve all been effected by the recent pictures of the devastation in Haiti and Chili. Well, Eric Louie, Rachel Weiss, Ashley Delegal, Taibi Magar, and Sean Thorne all felt like they needed to do something to help. They came up with NOU SE ZANMI, A Benefit for Haiti which was held in Joe’s...
Well, we pulled it off! I just got back a few days ago from working on FIFA Congress in the Bahamas. This was a yearly international Congress for football (soccer) and I’ve been assisting Jesse Poleshuck to design a stage that could accommodate an Opening Ceremony and an official Congress meeting the next day. This...
As many of you know, I balance my time between my two passions: photography and theatre. I’ve always felt that, in my life anyway, one always feeds the other. I love photographing people and I love designing 3 dimensional environments for the theatre. It’s wonderful when both of these worlds come together and I am...
I have been working with Jim Youmans on his scenery design for the revival of West Side Story which opens on Broadway at the Palace Theatre February 23. I was thrilled to be asked to photograph production photos for him. The show is beautiful and it was so exciting to see on stage. The story...
