My recent trip to Maine wasn't entirely to shoot animal photos – that was just a fun bonus. My sister Becca directs her jr-sr high school's musical and I really wanted to see this year's Wizard of Oz up in Houlton, ME.
I hung around backstage while everyone was putting on makeup and warming up.
The star of the show:
Ms. DeWan chatting with one of her kids moments before curtain.
The whole cast rushed the center of their circle for a big group cheer.
Let show begin...
Dorothy's shoes were fabulous, though apparently not very comfortable.
I was enjoying playing with the spotlight... here they are walking out of the auditorium
...and back in
One of my favorite scenes - the Jitterbugs! It was a swing dance scene that the kids had been rehearsing since mid-August. The original scene was cut from the 1939 movie.
Loved the tights!

LOVE the Jitterbug shot!
Emily, this is soooo awesome. I felt like I was almost there. The lighting was awesome, loved the wardrobes of the actors (especially the tights). You did great! Did I mention how great the lighting was??
