Blewbury Players – The Canterbury Tales

In July I went along to a local acting group to take some photos of them in action and also some portraits of the members of the cast. For those interested there are many more pictures here: Performance on 17/8/08, Performance on 19/8/08 and Portraits taken on 17/8/08

For those of you not familiar with The Canterbury Tales they were written by Geoffrey Chaucer in the 14th centuryand are actually pretty funny. Always nice to take photos of something that makes you laugh too! Here Bible bashing is taken in the literal context.

I also took portraits of some of the cast members. For those of you photographically minded out there; I used two shoot-through umbrellas and Canon Speedlites to light them. The rather beautiful wooden background was part of an old barn on the stage site. Always nice to find something like that to work with.

Again there are lots more images which I have split into three galleries for those interested.
