I was so excited by Stephanie's awesome PR photos, Abi joining MythFest and our baby Mythodical Ensemble FB page getting over 100 "likes" in 24 hours that I forgot to announce the MOST EXCITING THING!

We will be performing at Eclectic Theater formerly and fondly the Odd Duck) at 1214 10th ave on Capitol Hill! The gods must've whispered this in one of our ears while we were sleeping, because long before we knew for sure, we procured a couple hours' rehearsal space there this week! 

We were all very happy to get this news - as much as we enjoyed performing in March at the Seattle Creative Arts Center with The Pocket Theater, it was definitely challenging as a theater space, so having a venue with an actual *lighting board* as well as more traditional entrance and exit options (even a center aisle up the audience!) is extremely exciting. Plus, we already performed Fate Demands It there all by its lonesome, albeit accompanied by several other original short plays in June's One-Act Play Festival, so we are definitely hitting the ground running. Yay for us!

Hope you will come see the new MythFest next month:

I just HAD to toot the horn of our photographer, Stephanie Mallard Couch. I just HAD to. I met her while we were both actors in a reverse-gender production of Hamlet at Ghost Light Theatricals - she was playing Polonius; I played the Ghost. She was not the "official" photographer for the production, but brought her fancy camera in a couple times anyway and got a lot of "just for fun" shots. I loved her work. 

A couple months later, while working on PR for eSe Teatro, we were looking to get a few shots of our staged reading of Don Quixote & Sancho Panza: Homeless in Seattle, but also both publicity and production photos of eSe Oro: Classics from the Golden Age of Spain. I immediately thought of Stephanie, and once again, she delivered. Not only that, but she had lots of fun doing it!

So of course, when we embarked upon getting publicity shots in February for MythFest, Stephanie was the first name that came to mind. She does great work, gets the photos back very quickly, and is really fun to work with during the photo shoot - she's great at incorporating both the ideas we put forward, as well as coming up with many of her own! And the results, of course, are stunning.  Just see for yourself in the gallery below of our most recent shoot! And if you are looking for someone to photograph a show or an event, or even if you need new head shots (she did mine!) - please contact her through her website, SMC Photography, HERE.
