I didn't, but the Festival participates in a softballleague against other businesses in the area. Yesterday, we won the game23 to 8 against the Better Batters team. Anyone who works at the theatercan participate, including management, technicians and the singersthemselves, such as Adam Diegel, who plays Don José in Carmen, is seenon top hitting a home run during the bottom of the forth inning. Belowhim is Mike, the Technical Director Intern, throwing the ball to firstbase, and on the bottom is the enthusiastic crowd cheering on our team.William Brown The Glimmerglass Festival posted a photo: A few weeks ago, I was by the front of the theater before the show, and I saw these two little ones sitting by the fire pond. While taking the picture, I realized that this is what this season is all about, bringing in new audiences and exposing new people to the joy of the Glimmerglass experience. William Brown The Glimmerglass Festival posted a photo: The Glimmerglass Festival posted a photo: The Glimmerglass Festival posted a photo: Two weeks ago, our double billing of Later the Same Evening and A Blizzard On Marblehead Neck premiered during a heat wave hitting Central New York. The decision was made during intermission to keep our walls open during the performance of A Blizzard On Marblehead Neck. This rare occurrence cooled off the audience, letting the gentle breeze waft through the space. The heat didn't seem to dampen the crowd during curtain call and the show seemed well received. I took advantage of this situation to photograph the show through the screens on the outside of the theater.
