Most have nowhere near the number of signs that there are on this post, which is near the Thaw Pavilion. Hopefully these will help people get around our beautiful campus!William Brown			The Glimmerglass Festival posted a photo:	On Wednesday, we had on and off rain through out the day, but it seemed to break right before we had to head to the softball game. I walked out of the Malton Place Residence and spotted the rainbow in the sky. I then booked it over to the theater, where I knew exactly where I needed to be. I do wish it were a full rainbow, but I do like how it leads your eye to the flags and the theater.William Brown			The Glimmerglass Festival posted a photo:	Who would I have thought that I could try my hand at sports photographythis summer? 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:	I took this photo of the Alice Busch Opera Theater a few weeks ago during the intermission of Annie Get Your Gun. I enjoy how you can see people enjoying the festival grounds on the lovely summer day, such as the two women strolling along the path, the family relaxing by the pond and the people enjoying the view of the mountain from the balcony. The trees on the sides of the photo frame the shot as well as give you hint of what the festival is like beyond the frame of the photo. I also like how you can see the open walls of the theater, which I think is one of the coolest aspects of it. William Brown
