Photographed in Studio 2 on Bentley Street.
Lauren Stead wants to be a nurse.
Anna Duncan is going into medicine at Dalhousie University.
Matthew Christie is hoping his band, Neon Light Knife Fight, "works out". I hope I got that band name right.
Gavin Downes is gonna rock his band.
Mitchell Tims is going to study arts at UNB.
Alexandra Fournier is going to Acadia to study English and history.
This Sunday night these young Saint John thespians, along with some other great young actors, will perform Interaction Theatre Company's rock and roll version of Romeo and Juliet.
Update: I forgot to add that I also would have liked to photograph Zoe Caddell, the show's young music director and composer, but she wasn't available. She's already on to big things--recording out of town while those photographed above were rehearsing.
On a small photogeekery note: I shot their photos on Polaroid because I thought it was cool to photograph these actors and actresses on a camera that was made long before any of them were born, but also because yesterday The Impossible Project announced they are making brand new film for Polaroid SX-70 cameras. My SX-70 just so happens to be one of my favorite cameras, and I'm thrilled.
