Carriage House

At the Phantasmagoria photo shoot in Sanford, the carriage house behind the historic home was turned into a dusty attic space filled with props from past shows. Thin lace hing fro the rafters like spider webs and draped itself over an antique wooden wheel chair.

Each cast member in turn searched the space while the photographer took shots.  Each actor explored the space in their own unique way. Puppets from past performances were hidden among the attic clutter. Punch sat comfortably in his rocking chair while a human skull dominated an end table.

It was a rather hot day and two large fans circulated the air in the room. There is clearly no insulation in this old carriage house structure. Since each photo shoot was over in an instant, I struggled to piece together one performer by taking bits and pieces from multiple performances.
