Theatre Production - Til-Jean and his Brothers
The most recent in a long series of productions at Edna Manley College's School of Drama, truly the performances stand as a wonderful example of the skills and passions of practitioners out here in Jamaica. Come rain or sun these students and teachers rehearse and perfect each performance that have shown me many different techniques and styles.
This production of Til-Jean, directed by Eugene Williams, is a feminist retelling of Derek Walcott's Caribbean fable. As well most of the productions, time was given for several shoots organised alongside Mr Williams to provide examples of his doubled cast and wonderful set/staging. While this may well be my last production with the School of Drama, it is easily my favourite to shoot, with an experienced cast (many of whom I have worked with on past productions) and some truly cinematic lighting and staging.
