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.
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!

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
Acting 11 and 12 students and Second Story Theatre took Charlie and the Chocolate Factory to the ArtSpring stage last night (and tonight and Friday night).
It’s a complex undertaking and filled with delightful moments.
