HISTORY: Though my being in "Bells Are Ringing" made me unable to be in this show, I was credited in the program as publicity photographer. However, my photos did nothing to help the publicity for the show.
Shortly before a mid-October rehearsal, I snapped an entire roll of cast pictures for use in an issue of the college newspaper, The Crier.
The photos were submitted for use with an article--which I wrote--that was supposed to come out in time to advertise for the play.
Due to disorganization within the Crier staff, however, a last-minute decision was made to put the paper out at a later date, after all of the "Sleeping Beauty" performances were over. As a result, my article was shortened, and only one photo was used.
Along with taking pictures, I also attended and video-taped the November 2 performance of this show.
The first performance of this show took place in the CCC Commons Dining Room. All others were performed in the Science Amphitheater.
