Excellent. Nice lighting and a good angle on this stage shot. nice work.

Beautiful image! ROBY ;o)

nice capture...

real cool shot

Great imagery and colors. The cast looks great!

The performers are well situated in this stellar stage capture, Jodie.

Nice image and presentation, very expressive faces, the cast looks great, bravo !

A terrific shot (and some wonderful comments)! It really is theatrical. Full-size a must see! Your main character—I assume Judas (center)—is caught with the saturated lighting of a highlighted player. He stands out brilliantly, especially in front of the red backdrop which makes him stand out even more. (And their shadows!) But you have the motion: the line of arms going from viewer's right, right through Judas and into the person he's touching. Whoosh! Very much like the wonderful Renaissance paintings of these scenes. And the cloistered lighting of the theater, how the actors/actresses stand out larger than life in that intense 'theater glow'; and even that woman in the upper left who's staring at something else, as good scene-actors should (ie, taking our eyes into places beyond the stage). Theater photography is tough: Even the best newspapers don't get it right—they either get too much light or too little. It's a tight little cauldron of a world, and I love how you've captured it in this series. I love to see you delve into these worlds, and find the lightning in them. I really loved this!

Excellent stage shot Jodie! xx

Very beautiful and very nice photo!

I love the animation and movement of the hand, it puts the action right there in the middle. Well done Jodie.

a very well done image... the scene rocks

A superb capture of the performers ! Ana

This is a superb capture. I'm drawn most to the actual drama implied in the image. Of course the story is well known, at least in Western circles, but what brings an added touch of intensity to this is the varied expressions on the faces of the actors, and their various points of focus. You've caught the guard in the background, looking resolute and bored, rather like a guard. The onlookers get equally intense focus, bringing the whole scene into a great level of lively variation. Added to this is the sense of motion, the blur of a hand, and the colors. Fantastic work

Perfectly composed and well lit! Which is always difficult in a theater scene. Excellent!
