It’s always a pleasure to work with the Brisbane Arts Theatre, and getting some promotional photos of Mrs Slocum from their production of Are You Being Served? was no exception. We ducked in to the slightly cramped, particularly cool BAT costume department to shoot, and it was the perfect setting for her character.

Are You Being Served? kicks off in May for a limited season. Tickets and other information at the Brisbane Arts Theatre website.

 

Brisbane-based BangNation (aka Taylor Edwards and Christopher Martin) take their show on the road to the Adelaide Fringe Festival this weekend. We met for some fun and somewhat explosive promo photos a little while back. Mess! Good mess.

If you’re in Adelaide, BangNation’s show runs from Monday 15 February through Sunday 21 February. Tickets and more information available from the Adelaide Fringe Festival.

ImproMafia bring their show Martini Time to the Brisbane Powerhouse in March as part of the Brisbane Comedy Festival. Have I mentioned before how much I love photographing actors? I have? Well let me say it again – I love photographing actors! Mike, Leanne and Jim were particularly excellent for our early morning alleyway shoot. For show details, head to the Martini Time Brisbane Comedy Festival page. Short version: Free comedy, Friday and Saturday nights for the first three weeks in March. Free? How good is that?

I love that these portraits were shot in an alley.I have a love of sneaking easter eggs in to work when I can, and Martini Time served up a golden opportunity. For the original production of It’s Martini Time, photographer Al Caeiro and designer Sean Dowling put a great promo poster together featuring five of the show’s characters. A few of these posters are still around, and one of them may have happened in to the shoot 😀
