Ok, I am certainly no photo expert, but I still think there are some cool pictures of the show… everyone was well received and we were all impressed that it was The Moses’ first show. Well done, guys.
Special thanks to Tom Daly for letting me borrow his low-light lens and giving me a few pointers for shooting.

We just had someone send in us the announcement for Live Arts 2008-2009 and I wanted to share it with you.
The arts enthusiast adds:
Before I go on, more important than the specifics of this list are the surprisingly moving words delivered by Live Arts Artistic Director John Gibson. When I say “surprisingly moving”, I am not exaggerating. I don’t get moved, but by God that man made me cry. The theater community of central Virginia has lost some members to God this year, even just this week. I didn’t know all of these people, but I am certain from the audible gasps in the audience that they were loved in the community. Perhaps others in this forum would know who was spoken of by John.
John’s elegy and birth announcement were so impassioned and earnest that I could see why Charlottesville is such a uniquely theater-heavy area, and Live Arts is such a unique theater, not just in Virginia but in the entire theater world. Our area’s theatrical heart beats big; it contains multitudes of creative spirits who unite daily to create our region’s tears and laughter, from Four County Players to the Hamner to Blackfriars and every theater, classroom, bar and ruin in between.
I was too entranced to write while John spoke, so anyone else who was there, please correct anything I’ve missed. Thank you very much!
The list is after the break..
