A Day at the Musicals

Attended a University of Central Lancashire production of 'The Witches of Eastwick', staged by third year Performing Arts students - and it was BRILLIANT!  The young lady, introducing the show, clearly stated that 'Flash Photography was NOT allowed'!  Fair-game then for non-Flash Photography, I thought, and so rattled off a few (50 or so) frames during the performance - flash OFF; silly 'electronic shutter sounds' OFF, monopod at the ready.

After the show, I did mention that I had taken some photographs, in full view of the cast (they were only 2 metres away at times), and I was 'advised' NOT to publish them - hopefully by creating a low resolution mosaic of a few of them (and additionally blurring faces, à la Google Street View), they are sufficiently indistinct not to cause offence, whilst still giving some taste of the occasion.
