Dress rehearsal onstage at ArtSpring

Butterfly!
Time to fly for this GISS Music and GISPA student at Butterfly, the Gulf Islands Secondary School end-of-semester music performance at ArtSpring on Salt Spring Island.
Instructor Bruce Smith helps students perform this kind of metamorphosis every year. It’s fascinating to see who’s going to steal the show each semester. (Two unique shows actually, Bruce—a kindred type A personality—just has to get every detail right. And thus is driven to produce two somewhat different shows Wednesday and Thursday nights)
This photo was taken during the dress rehearsal. Nice energy for a rehearsal; I just wish you could hear this photo!
p.s.
I look forward to another stunning performance from this young woman and her peers at GISPA’s Night Circus next week.
Gulf Islands Secondary Dance Performance
Saw the dress rehearsal for this year-end performance yesterday: great fun!
Show runs today and tomorrow at ArtSpring
Audience
A full house audience loves what they see in one of Gulf Island Secondary’s end-of-semester shows. Exams run this week and the second semester begins February 10.
*note: there’s something new coming tomorrow on SaltSpringPhotos—be sure to check it out!

Waiting for the Firemen
While photographing the dress rehearsal of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory the other evening, there was a wee delay due to some pyrotechnics experimentation, an ensuing fire alarm and a wait for the fire folk. I was able to busy myself by capturing a redundant photo of the photo show.
