We went to see Avenue Q last night. I really enjoyed it. It was sweet and funny and done really well. The actors are the puppeteers. They are acting and running the puppet and you get this joint effect which is really clever. The set was great-a miniature New York apartment block with rooms that opened up and different levels and windows.
Here is my shadow shot for this week-the lighting rig in the theatre. Visit Hey Harriet here for more shadows.
Below are some photos from our journey into town. It was about 3.30 and the sun was setting. The gold of the sun was catching the buildings in the distance and everywhere looked really magical.
Have a great ShadowShotSunday

My Shadows
Thanks for the mini tour and the warm, warm shadows...it's cold here in Iowa too, so I'll take any glimpse of warmth I can get!!!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful holiday!
I like the contrast bewteen the old building and the shadows of the modern lighting.
ReplyDeletelovely series of photos...
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteThe lights leave a modern and mechanical shadow on the classic detailing of the theater. The train ride seems magical, as you are not a commuter on a crowded train. You instead are being transported to an artistic and fun time at your destination...
ReplyDeleteI love that lighting rig shadow! It looks like it might have been a tough shot to get with very little light to work with!
ReplyDeleteAn interesting set of shots
ReplyDeleteWhoa, the sun starts to set early where you are.
ReplyDeleteCool stage light shadow.
Your trip sounds like great fun..and oh the Snow! Merry Christmas to you too! oxo

ReplyDeleteI love the intricate details in the shadow shot and all of the city with pretty lighting!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tour! How interesting that shadows become the subject! I'm off to check out more!! :>
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colours and I agree, quite magical. It's been another snowy day here in Norfolk, but with stunningly blue skies this morning. Beautiful! Have a great Christmas break. Ros
ReplyDeleteThe play sounds perfect for you, the puppets and all. Love the photos of your journey. We've been in all day due to blizzards and closed roads.
ReplyDeleteIntriguing shadows. Sounds like an interesting show. I'd love to be seeing a show in London right now!
ReplyDeleteHappy Holidays,

Great shots of the city and the shadows!
ReplyDeleteHappy Holidays!
Nice shadow shot and I especially enjoyed the photos that followed. Once I recovered from the shock of discovering how early your sun starts setting over there! 3.30? Wow! Have a super week ahead Sarah! I already wished you merry Christmas so I'll not repeat myself. And I'm all Christmassed out after braving the big stores today for last minute shopping. I'm looking forward to the day being over. Bah humbug me ;D
ReplyDeleteLove your shadow shot!! I've heard avenue Q was a lot of fun too - must go see it if it comes here! Keep warm and have a lovely week!
ReplyDeleteWonderful post, Sarah and love those shots of the snow in the city. Avenue Q is a lot of fun! Glad you were able to see it.
ReplyDeleteHappiest of holidays to you and yours.
