... and, ACTION!

Our production of As You Like It is drawing nearer! We open this Friday, September 28th in the Experimental Theatre at SDSU. Have you not bought your tickets yet? What are you waiting for?! Get on it before tickets sell out!

In the meantime, the cast, technical crew, and designers had a long weekend of rehearsals spent incorporating all of the technical and design elements into the show. They were real champs!

One of the most exciting technical aspects of the show is the film projection. Yes– there is video (and even some LIVE video!) in this production. Fun, right?

Our film director, Aana Meyers, has been busy filming clips that will make up the first act of the show. Check out Angie Zanolini, our costume designer, giving Kay McNellen (Oliver) some special effects make-up as the film crew looks on...

In the next clip, Aaron Drake (Orlando) gets some, too.

You know what's coming... Brother duel from Act I of As You Like It!

Very cool, no?

These are just rough film clips. You'll see the finished product in our show, opening THIS weekend!

Next up in our backstage tour is a glimpse at costumes and makeup as we move into dress rehearsals. Stay tuned and remember to buy your tickets!
