ST. LOU FRINGE - BARE (1ST IMAGE)

Bare was a full-length, two act musical, a coming of age story about young people at a Catholic high school (oh, how I can relate) with themes of authority, rebellion, alienation, and a complex web of straight, bi and gay relationships. It was also the most difficult to shoot. There  was constant movement, a crowded stage with changes in color, and color LED stage lights are hell on cameras. 

I only got to see the first act, an hour and twenty minutes, because I had another show to get to. This is one of my favorite photos of the festival, two young men on the edge of a gay encounter, one full of confidence, the other full of longing, indecision and guilt. 

More to come.
